Cookie Policy
How CCAIRE uses cookies.
CCAIRE keeps cookie use to a minimum. Cookies that are not strictly necessary are set only after you give us express, informed consent, consistent with Canadian privacy expectations.
What cookies are
Cookies are small files stored on your device by your browser. Similar technologies include local storage and session storage. We use them to keep the site working and, with your consent, to understand which resources are useful.
Your choices (opt-in by default off)
When you first visit, our cookie banner asks for your choice. Optional categories remain off unless you turn them on. You can accept optional cookies, choose necessary cookies only, or customize each category.
- Strictly necessary — always on. Security, page delivery, and remembering your cookie choice. These cannot be switched off because the site cannot function without them.
- Functional preferences — optional. Remembers choices you make, such as details already entered in a form.
- Analytics — optional. Aggregate, de-identified statistics about page use so we can improve our educational resources.
- Advertising and cross-site tracking — not used. CCAIRE does not sell personal information and does not run advertising cookies.
Withdrawing or changing consent
You may withdraw or change your consent at any time. Clearing this site's cookies and site data in your browser settings will remove your stored preference, and the cookie banner will appear again on your next visit so you can make a new choice. Most browsers also let you block or delete cookies entirely; blocking strictly necessary cookies may affect how the site works.
Canadian legal context
Our approach reflects the federal Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), Quebec's Act respecting the protection of personal information in the private sector (Law 25), and applicable provincial privacy legislation, which expect meaningful, informed consent for non-essential technologies and a genuine ability to decline.
For details on how we handle personal information more broadly, see our Privacy Policy.
