Personalization

LiVE by CF provides you with a personalized shopping experience. As you use LiVE by CF, we collect information about your use of LiVE by CF in order to improve the relevancy of the search results, offers and promotions we show you as well as other purposes described in this Privacy Notice. If you create an account, we will associate your use of LiVE by CF with your account. If you log out of LiVE by CF and browse as a guest, we will still associate your activity in LiVE by CF on that device with your account. We do not collect information when you use other browsers or apps on your device. We may associate information collected about your use of LiVE by CF with other Cadillac Fairview services you use with the same email address (including when you log into LiVE by CF using other devices).

You can use LiVE by CF without creating an account. If you only ever browse as a guest, you can uninstall and reinstall LiVE by CF and the identifier associated with your device will be reset and your prior use as a guest will not be associated with your new installation. You can also turn off personalization so that we do not show you content based on your previous search terms and usage history. Please see below under "Your Rights and Choices" for information on your choices.

Information We Collect and Use

We are continually innovating to improve LiVE by CF and associated services. This section explains what personal information we collect today and what personal information we anticipate collecting in future releases. We will notify you before we collect additional personal information not described in this LiVE by CF Privacy Notice or use your personal information in a new way not disclosed in this LiVE by CF Privacy Notice.

Please also read the section Personalization to understand how we use the personal information described below to personalize your experience with LiVE by CF and how we connect this information to other Cadillac Fairview services you use.

• Registration Information. LiVE by CF now allows you to create an account. You can create an account using your email address or by signing in with your Google account. If you use Google sign in, Google will provide us with your email address. Creating an account allows you to save favourites and to link your use of LiVE by CF on multiple devices. Additional features for account holders are coming! You can still use LiVE by CF without providing us with your name or email address. However, you will not be able to access all services without an account.
• Device Identifier. When you install LiVE by CF, we use a randomly generated identifier that we use to identify your device. We use the identifier to provide the functionality in LiVE by CF and, when linked with other information, to understand how you use LiVE by CF, including what content you find compelling. If you create an account, your device identifier will be associated with your email address. If you only browse as a guest, we will not attempt to identify you using the identifier. If you log into your account on more than one device, you will have more than one connected identifiers.
• Location Information. You may use LiVE by CF without enabling location-based services. If you enable location-based services, your device will calculate whether you are at a Cadillac Fairview shopping centre or the nearest Cadillac shopping centre to you. We do this to help you find the Cadillac Fairview shopping centre near you. LiVE by CF uses third-party service providers who infer your device’s general location (such as general location in a city and province) from the internet protocol (IP) address assigned to your device. This information is used to provide you with a notice of a new log-in from a new device for security purposes. We also use this information to understand the city and province in which LiVE by CF is used. LiVE by CF does not collect GPS coordinates from your device or track your movements.
• Wayfinding. LiVE by CF’s wayfinding tool allows you to map out a route between stores in some Cadillac Fairview shopping centres. You will need to enter your starting location at the Cadillac Fairview shopping centre and the retail stores you wish to visit at the shopping centre. LiVE by CF does not track your movements on your shopping journey. You can optimize your route to avoid areas that may be congested. We estimate congestion using anonymized foot traffic data. Some Cadillac Fairview shopping centres are equipped with technologies that use an anonymized version of a mobile device’s media access control (MAC) address to recognize when visitors are in different zones in the shopping centre to help Cadillac Fairview understand foot traffic patterns. This foot traffic data collection is separate from LiVE by CF. However, this foot traffic data helps power our route optimization wayfinding services. Please see The Cadillac Fairview Corporation Limited’s Privacy Policy for more information.
• Search History and Favourites. When you search for products and services using LiVE by CF, we collect your in-app search history and how you interacted with any in-app advertisements, offers, promotions and other sponsored content from Cadillac Fairview, our shopping centre retailers and other promotional partners. We also collect information when you save favourites in your account. We use all of this information to understand what products and services are of interest to users of LiVE by CF and to show you search results, offers and promotions that are relevant to you. We do not collect information when you use other browsers or apps on your device.
• Click-Through History. We record when you click on third-party links to visit a retailer’s or promotional partner’s website; however, we do not monitor or collect any information about your browsing history on these external third-party sites. We use Click-Through History to understand when users of LiVE by CF use links that we offer. In some cases, Cadillac Fairview may receive compensation for directing visitors to these other websites. We may aggregate information about your click-throughs with other users in order to evaluate and audit our compensation arrangements.
• Device Information. Like other publishers of mobile apps, we collect device information (such as device type, make, model, operating system, language and other configuration settings, LiVE by CF version, the IP address assigned to your internet connection, whether you are connected to Wi-Fi or using cellular data) and usage information (such as what features you use and how you interact with LiVE by CF). We collect this information in order to provide the LiVE by CF services, to show you search results, offers and promotions that are relevant to you, to infer the general location of your device from the device IP address, to identify security vulnerabilities and to secure our services, to create metric reports, and for troubleshooting purposes. In most cases we aggregate information about you with information of other users when we use your information in this way.
• Contact Information. If you contact us for LiVE by CF support or to ask us a question about LiVE by CF or communicate with us through LiVE by CF, we will collect contact information from you such as your name and email address in order to respond to your request. We will also collect information about your request and how we responded. If you are seeking technical support, we may also collect and use basic LiVE by CF usage information, such as device type, make, model, operating system, language and other configuration settings, LiVE by CF version, Wi-Fi network, and telecom provider, in order to troubleshoot and resolve your technical issue. If you contact us through LiVE by CF, we will also collect device identifiers that help us respond to your request, such as an access or deletion request.
• Push Notification Preferences. If you have push notifications enabled, we will collect information about the retailers from whom you wish to receive push notifications in order to manage your preferences as well as to understand your interests.
• Analytics and Insights. We may use the information you provide to us or that is generated through the use of LiVE by CF in order to develop analyses and insights regarding users of LiVE by CF. We may also use this information to assist other Cadillac Fairview affiliates, retailers and other third parties improve their products and services. We may also collect analytics information using third party services. For example, if you see an advertisement for LiVE by CF and download our app, our third-party service provider will be able to use that information to measure the effectiveness of our advertisement.

Third-Party Service Providers

Like most companies, we use third party service providers and our affiliates to assist us in providing LiVE by CF and associated products and services. For example, we use third party service providers to host LiVE by CF servers, to store and authenticate your login credentials, to randomly generate and manage the device identifiers, to host any communications you send to us through our contact form, to track app usage information for analytics purposes, and to track click throughs to third party links, and to measure the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns. Our location-based services are also powered by third party service providers. Please see below under "Your Rights and Choices" for information on your choices.

We require third-party service providers to only use personal information we share with them for the purposes of providing services to us. Like most companies, we may permit third-party service providers to use non-identifying information and information in an aggregated or statistical form in order to maintain and improve the services that they are offering Cadillac Fairview and other companies. These companies are not authorized to use that information to attempt to identify you.

If we use third party service providers that collect and use your personal information for purposes other than providing services to us, we generally require them to offer you the ability to opt-out of their services or information collection unless they have a direct relationship with you or we have the ability to delete your personal information upon your request.

• Affiliates and Third Parties. Cadillac Fairview shares and combines personal information collected about you across our companies in order to provide the services you request and to assist each other in their businesses.

We may do this without your prior consent. However, either we or the purchaser will notify you if this happens. If another entity acquires all or a portion of our assets, information that we collected from you may be shared with that entity. The information may also be shared for the purpose of that entity considering whether to enter into the transaction and also to complete the transaction.

For example, these circumstances include: (a) if such disclosure is necessary for us to receive legal advice; (b) to collect a debt from you; (c) if we are required to disclose your personal information in order to comply with any legal obligation or the decision of a judicial authority; (d) if disclosure is requested by an investigatory body, law enforcement official or governmental authority which has lawful authority to request the disclosure of the information in respect of an investigation; (e) if we have reasonable grounds to believe that the information relates to a breach of an agreement or contravention of a law; and (f) to detect, prevent or investigate fraud.
