Mickael's School of Bread ("Mickael's", "we", "us") operates mickaels.ca and respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect, how we use it, who we share it with, and the choices you have. It applies to everyone who visits our site, creates an account, places an order, books a workshop, or subscribes to our communications.

  • Order & booking details β€” products you order, workshop registrations, participant information, dietary notes, and payment records.

  • Visit data β€” approximate location (city/region/country), referring page, browser, and the pages you view, collected to understand traffic and improve the site.

How we use your information

  • Legal compliance β€” when required by law or to protect our rights, safety, or the safety of others.

Children's privacy

Our kids' workshops are designed for children, but registrations are made by a parent or guardian. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 16 without guardian involvement. Waivers and media consent for minors are signed by a parent or legal guardian.
