This policy explains the use of cookies and similar tracking technologies on our platform. Our objective is to maintain full transparency regarding how these files are used to improve service efficiency, maintain security, and provide a tailored user experience.
What are cookies and why do we use them?
Cookies are small data files downloaded to your device when you navigate our website. They act as a technical utility that helps our system recognize your browser, maintain the status of your active session, prevent unauthorized access, and ensure that our platform features remain stable and functional during your interaction.
Categories of cookies employed
Strictly necessary cookies These are fundamental to the operation of our services. They manage system security, encryption protocols, and user authentication. Because these are essential for the site to function, they are enabled by default and cannot be deactivated.
Performance and analytics cookies These files collect anonymized, aggregated information about website traffic. They assist us in identifying technical bottlenecks, monitoring system load times, and improving our infrastructure to ensure a smooth, high-quality user experience.
Functional cookies These files allow our system to remember specific user choices, such as language settings or interface preferences. This makes your navigation more convenient by preventing the need to reconfigure these options with every new visit.
Managing your preferences
Upon your first visit, a notification banner provides options to customize your consent for non-essential cookies. You have the right to adjust, reject, or re-grant your consent at any time using the dedicated privacy control panel integrated into our platform.
Browser-based control
You may manage cookie preferences directly through your browser settings. You can view existing files, delete them selectively or in bulk, block cookies from specific domains, or utilize private/incognito modes to ensure that all session data is automatically purged upon closing the browser.
Third-party integration
For system diagnostics and operational maintenance, we may integrate external software components. These third-party services may place their own cookies, subject to their individual privacy practices. We suggest reviewing the documentation of these providers for detailed insights.
Updates
This policy may be amended due to technical advancements or changes in the regulatory landscape in Canada. We encourage all users to review this page periodically to stay informed.
