What are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help websites function properly and provide information about how visitors interact with the site.
Cookies do not typically identify you directly. However, some information collected through cookies may be linked to other data in limited circumstances.
How we use Cookies
We use cookies for two primary purposes:
1. Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are required for the website to function properly. They support core features such as page navigation, security and accessibility. The website cannot operate correctly without them.
2. Analytics Cookies
We use analytics tools to understand how visitors use our website—such as which pages are visited, how long users stay, and how they navigate the site. This helps us improve content, usability and overall performance.
We use:
- Google Analytics to collect aggregated information about website usage.
- Google Tag Manager to manage and deploy website tracking tools.
These tools collect information such as:
- Pages visited
- Time spent on pages
- Device and browser type
- General geographic region (e.g., city or country)
The information collected is aggregated and used to improve the website experience. We do not use cookies for advertising purposes.
Third-party services
Analytics services such as Google may process data outside of Canada. These providers manage the information they collect in accordance with their own privacy policies.
We encourage you to review their privacy practices if you would like more information.
Managing your Cookies preferences
You can control or disable cookies at any time through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:
- View what cookies are stored
- Delete cookies
- Block cookies entirely
- Set preferences for certain websites
Please note that disabling strictly necessary cookies may affect how the website functions.
If we implement a cookie consent banner in the future, you will be able to adjust your preferences directly on our site.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Settings page from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legislation or our website practices. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page indicates when changes were made.
