- Natural Resources Canada does not automatically gather any personal information from you, such as your name, phone number, e-mail or street address during your visit to its web sites. This information is obtained only if you supply it voluntarily, usually through contacting us via e-mail or registering in a secure portion of the site.
- Any personal information that you do provide is protected under the federal Privacy Act. At the time of collection, you will be notified that your personal information is being collected, why it is being collected and that you have a right of access to the information.
- Visitor information is not disclosed to anyone except Natural Resources Canada personnel who need the information to respond to a request. The information you give us will be shared with another government department ONLY if your inquiry relates to that department. We do not use the information to create individual profiles, nor do we disclose the information to anyone outside those who need to provide you with a response in the federal government.
- Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) occasionally uses "cookies" to track how visitors use its Web sites. Whenever we enable "cookies" to facilitate your transactions, we will first inform you.

It is a unique identifying code for your computer and can only be read by the server that gave it to you.)
- NRCan Web sites have links to other useful sites on the Internet, including sites of other government agencies. If you follow any link to a location outside NRCan Web sites, you should refer to that site's own privacy policy.
