Privacy Statement

When you visit this Website, when you move from page to page, read pages, or download its content onto your computer, we record the following information:

• The address you are connecting from
• Which pages are visited
• What content is downloaded
• The address of Websites that you visited immediately before coming to our site.

The CCMA uses this information to find out how many people visit its Website and which sections of the site are visited the most frequently. This helps the CCMA to know what type of information is most useful, improve its Website, and make it easier for you to access the Information.

None of the information collected is associated with any individual. It is measured only in aggregate. CCMA records the statistical information on the numbers of visitors to its Website, but no information about individuals in particular is kept or used.

If you attend a CCMA event or sign up to receive CCMA information, we will keep "business-card" information, areas of interest and industry sector on file to provide future mailings of material of interest. The information will reside in an internal database of The Canadian Depository for Securities Limited (CDS), which is providing administrative services to the CCMA. The information may be provided on rare occasions to third parties who provide event and mailing services with strict caveats to protect the privacy of that information. If you wish to have your information removed from the CDS/CCMA database at any time, please e-mail your request to info@ccma-acmc.ca. We will remove the CCMA-related information, or, if you are a CDS client, the CCMA identifies and acknowledge that we have done this for you.
