Privacy Policy

The Conseil québécois des entreprises adaptées (CQEA) is concerned about respecting the privacy of users and is committed to respecting it. This website was developed by the CQEA.

PRIVATE INFORMATION

The CQEA’s Internet site does not contain any technology that allows the collection of personal information from users against their will. The only personal information that the CQEA may collect is information that users voluntarily provide by writing directly to an e-mail address listed on the site. Such information will be treated and stored in the same manner as any other direct communication with the CQEA.

AUTOMATICALLY TRANSMITTED INFORMATION

You should know that as soon as you access the www. site, automatically and without your intervention, an exchange of information takes place between your computer and the CQEA server. This information does not identify you personally. The following information is exchanged:

• the Internet domain name (for example, “xcompany.com” if you use a private Internet access account, or “university.edu” if you access via a university) and your IP address (an IP address is a number automatically assigned to your computer by your Internet service provider whenever you surf the Web) with which you access our site;
• the type of browser and operating system used to access our site;
• the date and time you access our site;
• the pages you visit;
• the address of the referring site (if you reach www. from another site).

The CQEA uses the Google Analytics service. Google Analytics requires in its Privacy policy that the CQEA provide this information:

“This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses “cookies”, which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyse how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website (including your IP address) will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity for website operators and providing other services related to website activity and internet usage. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google’s behalf. Google will not associate your IP address with other data held by Google. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser. However please note that if you do this you may not be able to use the full functionality of this website. By using this website, you consent to process data about you by Google in the manner and for the purposes set out above. “

This exchange of information is necessary for the server to transmit to the user a file compatible with the computer equipment it uses. The CQEA also keeps the information required to count the number of visitors, the most frequently visited pages, the technology used by users of its site, the referring sites, and the country of origin of Internet users.
