We are committed to providing our visitors with a web site that
respects their privacy. This page summarizes the privacy policy and
practices on Strategis.
We do not automatically gather any personal information from you,
such as your name, phone number, e-mail or address. This
information is only obtained if you supply it voluntarily, usually
through contacting us via e-mail, or registering in a secure
portion of the site.
Any personal information you do provide is protected under the
federal Privacy Act. This means that, at the point of
collection, you will be informed that your personal information is
being collected, the purpose for which it is being collected and
that you have a right of access to the information.
We use software that receives and records the Internet Protocol
(IP) address of the computer that has contacted our Web site. We
make no attempt to link these addresses with the identity of
individuals visiting our site.
We do not regularly use "cookies" to track how our
visitors use the site. Whenever we enable "cookies" to
facilitate your transactions, we will first inform you.
Visitor information is not disclosed to anyone except Industry
Canada personnel who need the information, e.g., to respond to a
request.
If you join a Strategis online discussion group, we may
ask you to volunteer personal information such as your name and
email address for the purposes of effective administration of the
discussion group. In some cases, our groups are limited to members
only and as such, discussions can not be accessed by the general
public. We will notify you as to whether you are joining a closed
(limited) or open (public) discussion.
For questions or comments regarding this policy or for additional
information about the administration of the Privacy Act at Industry
Canada, contact us by
e-mail or call 1-800-328-6189 or (613) 954-5031. If you are not
satisfied with our response to your privacy concern, you may wish to
contact the Office of the Privacy
Commissioner.
