This privacy policy applies to the personal information that CCRM collects about you when you visit CCRM’s website (the “Site”).
The Personal Information CCRM Collects When You Visit the Site
When you visit the Site, CCRM collects the personal information that you provide to us when using the Site. Examples of this type of information include your contact information (name, email and organization), as well as information you include in any communication you choose to send us, such as your address and country.
Web servers automatically collect certain information about a visit to a website, including your Internet Protocol (“IP”) address. IP addresses are unique numbers assigned by Internet Service Providers (“ISP”) to all devices used to access the Internet. Web servers automatically log the IP addresses of visitors to their sites. The IP address, on its own, may not identify you, but can do so when combined with other data automatically collected when you request a web page, such as the name of the page you visited and the date and time of your visit.
CCRM’s Use of Cookies
“Cookies” are an example of “digital markers”: a small file placed on your computer by a website that you visit. They are stored there so that the web server can remember certain pieces of information about you and make your visit easier so that you do not have to reenter the same information every time. This information is used by the web server during the same or another visit to the website.
When you visit the Site, CCRM uses cookies to remember the forms and web pages that you visit. The long-term cookie contains no personal information, but can uniquely identify a specific browser on a specific machine that you use when accessing the site. It remains active for two years. The short-term cookie usually expires after 30 minutes and is used to group all the website pages you visit on one occasion. When you check the “Remember Me” box after completing a form on our Site, the registration cookie enables the CCRM Site to show a prefilled form the next time you use it. The information stored in this cookie is a cryptographic, unique identifier. It does not contain the data you submitted; nor does it provide any means for an external application to uncover the submitted information.
CCRM uses cookies to collect your personal information from the sites we control. CCRM does not use cookies to capture any personal information about you when you visit other sites not controlled by CCRM.
You may adjust your browser settings to reject digital markers, including cookies. Disabling cookies when you visit our website will have no discernible impact on your browsing experience. Please consult your browser’s Help Menu for instructions.
How CCRM Uses Your Personal Information
CCRM uses the personal information we collect on our websites for the following purposes:
- the purposes for which you provided it;
- to process and respond to your inquiries and comments;
- to provide information to you; and,
- to analyze the success, effectiveness, usability or popularity of the content/service.
CCRM Third-Party Analytics
CCRM uses third-party web analytics services, including Google Analytics, which uses cookies and similar technologies to collect data (such as IP addresses) to evaluate use of, and interaction with, our site. These tools collect information sent by your browser or mobile device, including the pages you visit and other information that assists us in improving our websites. We collect and use this analytics information in aggregate form so that it cannot reasonably be manipulated to identify any particular individual user.
Please see the privacy policy at https://cdmo.ccrm.ca/cdmo-privacy for the way in which we use third-party analytics when you access our Education Centre.
External Sites
When you explore “Careers at CCRM” to view our current job openings and apply for a position, you are taken to an external site: Ceridian Dayforce. Please visit Ceridian’s privacy policy at https://www.ceridian.com/privacy to understand how this site manages your personal information.
For the convenience of our visitors, CCRM also provides links to other external sites that are not under our control (for example, Twitter and other social media sites). We are not responsible for the content and the privacy practices of sites other than our own. We encourage you to examine each site’s privacy policy and disclaimers, and to make your own decisions regarding the accuracy, reliability and completeness of material and information found there.
How We Safeguard Your Personal Information
CCRM protects the information we collect on servers in a controlled, secure environment. We maintain safeguards to defend against unauthorized access, use, modification and disclosure of this data.
CCRM uses industry-standard SSL encryption when communicating your data.
However, no data transmission over the Internet or a wireless network can be guaranteed to be 100 percent secure. While we strive to protect your personal information, there are security and privacy limitations of the Internet that are beyond our control. Information and data may be viewed or tampered with in transit by a third party, despite best efforts.
Privacy Policy Changes
CCRM may change its Website Privacy Policy from time to time, without advance notice and at CCRM’s sole discretion. Your continued use of this site after any change in this Website Privacy Policy will constitute your acceptance of such change(s).
CCRM has included the date on which any changes are made to the Website Privacy Policy in the “Last Updated” section at the beginning of the policy. We encourage you to review this when you access the site.
Email Communications
Any personal information that you provide to CCRM will only be used to respond to your message and/or provide you with the requested service or product, including subscriptions to newsletters, news releases, and other information about CCRM or related to regenerative medicine. If you do not wish to receive email communications from CCRM, you may unsubscribe at any time or email us at info@ccrm.ca.
