Privacy on the Internet
This privacy statement is applicable to all EEI web-sites.
EEI respects the privacy of its Internet users and will protect that privacy as
vigorously as possible.
EEI does not automatically gather any personal information
from you, such as your name, phone number, e-mail or address. This information
is only obtained if you supply it voluntarily, usually through contacting us via
e-mail, or registering in a secure portion of the site.
Any personal information you do provide is protected under
the federal Privacy Act. This means that, at the point of collection, you will
be informed that your personal information is being collected, the purpose for
which it is being collected and that you have a right of access to the
information.
Individual information provided to EEI to gain access to any
EEI site will not be sold or made available to any third party.
EEI does reserve the right,
however, to perform statistical analyses of user behaviour and characteristics,
in order to measure interest in and use of the various sections of its sites so
as to improve design and navigation and to gather marketing information. Only
aggregated data from these analyses, not individual data, will be used for this
purpose.
As well, users should be
aware that certain non-personal information and data may be automatically
collected by EEI through the operation of what are called "cookies". "Cookies"
are small text files that identify an individual computer's browser entering a
web site. They allow the site to track that browser's movement through the site
over several sessions. Through cookies, a web site can recognize repeat users,
facilitate the user's access to and use of the site and allow a site to track
usage behaviour that will allow content improvements.
If you do not want a cookie placed on your computer by EEI,
you may disable cookies altogether by modifying the Preferences section of your
Netscape or Internet Explorer browser (under Edit/Preferences/Advanced). Note
that it is possible that some aspects of EEI sites may be unavailable to you if
you choose this option.
If you have no problem accepting cookies, but wish to be
informed of their appearance, you may turn on a warning prompt by modifying the
cookie warning section in Edit/Preferences/Advanced.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
EEI will regularly review all of its policies and procedures.
Our Privacy Policy may change from time to time.
