At MSU Mississauga, protecting your privacy is very important to us. Our goal is to treat your personal information with the utmost respect, and in accordance with this Privacy Policy. Please read on for details about our practices for handling your personal information. By accessing, using and/or downloading materials from this Site, you agree on your own behalf and on behalf of each entity on whose behalf you act to the terms of this Privacy Policy.

WHAT INFORMATION DO WE COLLECT?

Anonymous browsing

You can visit the public section of this Site without telling us who you are or revealing any information about yourself, including your e-mail address (the clients section requires the entry of a username and password). Our Web server may collect the name address, the IP address and domain you used to access this Site, the type and version of browser and operating system you are using, and the web site you came from and visit next. This information is used by us and our business partners to measure the number of visits, average time spent, page views, and other statistics about visitors to this Site in general. We may also use this data to monitor site performance for systems administration purposes, to make this Site easier and more convenient to use and to report information in aggregate form to our advisers (e.g. how many visitors log into this Site).

Cookies

Cookies are small pieces of data stored by your Internet browser on your computer’s hard drive, which permits us to recognize you when you access this Site. If you are browsing, a cookie is used to help us measure the number of visits, average time spent, page views, and other statistics relating to your use of this Site. This cookie, by itself, doesn’t tell us your e-mail address or who you are. If you decide to register on-line with us, we may collect additional information, or use cookies to provide tailored offerings or content to you. In this case, we use cookies to recognize you on subsequent visits and make your on-line experience more convenient, unless prohibited by the law of the jurisdiction where our server is located or which otherwise applies. You may set your browser to notify you when you receive a cookie or to prevent cookies from being sent. Please note, however, that by not accepting cookies, you may limit the functionality we can provide you when you visit this Site. Also, we do not share your personal information with advertisers.

Personal Information Collection

There are times when we may ask you for or you may choose to provide information about yourself and your business to assist us in meeting your various needs. This information may be used for the purpose of answering your questions, providing you with products or services you have requested, improving our services, developing and/or informing you of additional products or services provided by MSU Mississauga, by affiliates of MSU Mississauga or by our business partners, that may interest you. At times, we also conduct on-line surveys to better understand the needs, profiles, and experience of our visitors. You will be given the option of not participating in such surveys. Please note that we do not knowingly solicit information from children and we do not knowingly market our products and services to children.

COMMUNICATION OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION TO THIRD PARTIES

Occasionally, we may send you e-mail communications with information, which may be useful to you, including information about our products and services or about offerings from MSU Mississauga and our affiliates or third parties. We will include instructions in our e-mail messages on how to unsubscribe if you later decide you do not want to receive any future e-mails or other marketing contacts.

We may also aggregate statistics that we gather about the visitors to the Site, sales, traffic patterns, products and services, and provide these statistics to third parties; however, when we do, these statistics will not include any personal information that identifies individuals. All reasonable measures have also been taken so that the information you provide to us will not be used by our affiliates or third parties for purposes other than those indicated herein.

We may also use, disclose and communicate your personal information if required to do so by law, including by an order of any court.

HOW DO YOU ACCESS AND UPDATE YOUR INFORMATION?

You can update the personal information you have provided to us by sending us an e-mail to info@msumississauga.com. Also, you may request that we modify or delete information we have gathered during your visit by sending us an e-mail to info@msumississauga.com. If you are unsure whether we have a record containing your personal information and would like to confirm whether or not we do, please send an e-mail at info@msumississauga.com, indicating all e-mail addresses which you may have given us.

WHAT IF WE CHANGE OUR PRIVACY POLICY??

MSU Mississauga reserves the right to modify or supplement this Privacy Policy statement at anytime. If we make any material change to this Policy, we will update this Site to include such changes and post a notice on our home page with a link to the updated Privacy Policy. Please read any such notice and the new policy statement. Your continued use of this Site after we post such a notice will constitute your acceptance of the new terms and their application to your use of this Site, as well as the information disclosed for such use, including information previously given to us, as if they were the initial terms.
