Your privacy policy must disclose all third-party tracking, especially if you monetize through affiliate links or display advertising. Canada's federal private sector privacy law, PIPEDA (Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act), applies to commercial activities across Canada.

Under PIPEDA, consumer protection laws may require you to disclose your refund terms clearly before purchase. Even where not strictly required, a transparent Refund Policy reduces chargebacks, builds customer trust, and protects you from disputes.
A Refund Policy for Blog / Content Site should specify: the refund window, eligible and non-eligible items, the process for requesting a refund, how refunds are processed, and any restocking fees. For digital products, be explicit about access-based non-refundability.
Under PIPEDA, digital products can be non-refundable once they have been accessed or downloaded, provided users were clearly informed of this before purchase. You must obtain explicit consent acknowledging the non-refundability of digital goods.
