Website: cookies and web audience measurement

Our website uses the statistical and performance analysis services of Google Analytics. These services use, among other things, cookies to help us analyze how you interact with our website.

The information collected by Google is anonymized, i.e., it cannot be associated with you or any specific person. It is therefore impossible to identify you.

The following is a summary of the information we collect:

• your computer’s truncated IP address (the IP; address is modified, making it impossible to link you to it);
• country or city determined from the IP address;
• Internet service provider;
• operating system (e.g., Mac OS, Windows);
• browser type, language, version and other data (e.g., Chrome, Safari, Edge);
• the pages consulted on the Perspective Carrière website, the consultation sequence, the interactions on the page, the date, time, duration and frequency of visits and activities.

For more information on the information collected by Google and how it is used, we invite you to consult its Privacy Policy and Terms of Use. Google is located in the United States.

If you wish, you can prevent Google from recording information about your browsing by installing the Google Analytics deactivation browser add-on on your computer or other device.

 

Website: hyperlinks

Our website contains links to social media platforms and other websites. We are not responsible for the content of, or any links to, any external sites, or any changes or updates to such sites.

Information exchanged on these sites is not subject to this Privacy Policy, but to those of the external sites and platforms concerned. We invite you to consult them before disclosing your personal information.

 

Storage and destruction of personal information

Your personal information is retained on cloud servers only for the time necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.

Information may be stored outside Québec. Our agreements with our cloud service providers stipulate that information must be protected to ensure its confidentiality, in compliance with legal requirements and best practices.

When your information is destroyed, it is done so securely and irreversibly, in accordance with the retention schedule, which is available on request.

 

Complaints, questions and requests for access or rectification

You may request access to the personal information we hold about you, as permitted or required by law. Requests are generally free of charge, but may be subject to a reasonable fee.

If you have a complaint or question about this Privacy Policy, or if you wish to request access to or correction of your personal or confidential information, you must send a written request by mail, fax or e-mail to the person responsible for the protection of personal information.

The person responsible for the protection of personal information will contact you within thirty (30) days of receiving your e-mail.
