Thank you for visiting nbhpca-aspnb.ca and for reviewing our privacy policy. By visiting the New Brunswick Hospice Palliative Care Association online at nbhpca-aspnb.ca, you are accepting the practices described in this privacy notice.

The New Brunswick Hospice Palliative Care Association reserves the right to change this policy at any time. Our privacy policy will be kept up-to-date and posted on our website.

Protecting Your Personal Information

We will provide specific notice before collecting any of your personal information (details that can identify you as an individual, such as your name or address). We will explain what information is being collected and how it will be used. You have the right to decline to have this information collected or transferred for marketing purposes.

We collect no personal information about you unless you choose to provide that information to us. We do not use techniques that collect personal information about you without your knowledge.

We will not transfer your personal information to a third party for marketing purposes unless we have your consent. Any personally identifiable data about our customers or Web site visitors is stored securely.

We collect no personal information about children (under 13 years of age) without the express, positive consent of their parent or guardian.

How We Use Non-Personal Information

The New Brunswick Hospice Palliative Care Association’s website (nbhpca-aspnb.ca) may automatically record some general information about your visit, such as:

1. The Internet domain for your Internet service provider, such as “company.com” or “service.ca” and the IP address of the computer accessing the website, such as “ppp-55”
2. The type of browser (such as Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, Firefox, etc. ) that you are using
3. The type of operating system you are using (such as Macintosh, Unix, or Windows)
4. The date and time you visit our site and the web pages that you visit on our site, along with the address of the previous website you were visiting, if you linked to us from another website.

We use this information for statistical analysis, to help us make our site more useful to visitors. We may disclose this non-personal information to third parties such as sponsors, clients or advertisers and/or use it for auditing purposes. This tracking system does not record personal information about individuals or link this information to any personal data collected.

Cookies

In order to improve our site on an ongoing basis, we may use cookies to track your visit. A cookie is a small amount of data that is transferred to your browser by a web server and can only be read by the website that gave it to you. It functions as your identification card. It is not a program and cannot be executed as code or deliver viruses.

Cookies can also customize the site to your particular interests or store your personal information – like passwords or user IDs. If a site ever greets you with your name, chances are it’s using a cookie to do so.

Most browsers are initially set to accept cookies. You can set your browser to notify you when you receive a cookie – this gives you the chance to decide whether to accept it. To learn more about cookies and how to change your settings, please use the help function in your browser. The alerts will be quite frequent, however, and may eventually become annoying.

You can use the New Brunswick Hospice Palliative Care Association’s website without cookies, but you may have to re-enter information each time you visit.

What about spam?

You will not receive marketing e-mail from this organization unless you have consented to receive it. From time to time we may use e-mail as a way to keep in touch with our existing members, customers and other interested individuals. However, we do not send ‘spam’ (unsolicited marketing e-mail).

If you agree to receive e-mail communications from us, every e-mail message we send to you will include an e-mail address to which you can respond. If at any time you decide you do not want to receive marketing e-mail from us, simply let us know and we will remove your name and e-mail address from our marketing lists. We will do the same with your mailing address and telephone number, on request.

When You Leave This Site

This policy discloses the privacy practices for our website. However, our site contains links to other sites. Once you link to another site, you are subject to the privacy and security policies of the new site. We encourage you to read the privacy policies of all websites you visit, especially if you share any personal information.
