Web Privacy Policy

Our Use of Internet Technology

Cookies:

Our site may use cookies, which are small text files stored on your computer or device when users access a website. We use cookies to remember you and your preferences and help us understand how users engage with our sites. By continuing to use our site, you consent to the placement of relevant cookies on your computer or device. For example, when you interact with our website, we will receive technical information such as your internet protocol address, your computer’s operating system and browser type, the address of a referring website, if any, the path you take through our web pages, and system activities. No personally-identifying information is provided.

Lumenus will use this information to understand usage on our site, determine any difficulties users have with our sites, and it will tell us whether our communication efforts are effective.

Consent:

Unless permitted by law, Lumenus will not collect Personal Information without first obtaining your consent. In the event that Lumenus wants to use the information for a new or different purpose and believes consent is required, we will seek your further consent to use and disclose your personal information.

Lumenus will usually seek your express consent. However, there may be situations where your consent is implied by your actions. For example, by providing your contact information to us by completing a Contact or Donation form. By providing your Personal Information to Lumenus in any manner, you agree that we may collect, use, disclose or otherwise process your personal information in accordance with this Privacy Statement.

Withdrawing Your Consent:

Generally, you may withdraw your consent to our use of your Personal Information. If you do so, this may prevent Lumenus from providing you with information, or our programs or services. If you withdraw your consent, we will inform you of any consequences in doing so. Please note that, depending on the program or service, there may be circumstances where you cannot withdraw your consent because of legal, regulatory or contractual requirements. To withdraw your consent, you can contact us as at info@lumenus.ca

Please note that Canadian law permits or requires the use or disclosure of Personal Information without consent in specific circumstances. These circumstances include situations when required by law or necessary to protect Lumenus, our employees or others. Should Lumenus believe it appropriate to disclose Personal Information without consent, it will limit the disclosure of information to what is necessary.

Specific to Google Analytics:

We may use Google Advertising Features. This allows us to better track, understand and change our content to better suit the interests of our site visitors, the people we serve, our employees, partners and the like. These advertising features require Google Analytics to collect data via advertising cookies and identifiers. The Features that we may employ are:

Remarketing with Google Analytics
Google Display Network Impression Reporting
Google Analytics Demographics and Interest Reporting
Integrated services that require Google Analytics to collect data via advertising cookies and identifiers

What We Will Not Do With Your Information:

We do not upload any data that allows Google to personally identify you as an individual. That sort of data includes your name, email address, or any similar information that is clearly a marker of you and you alone. We also don’t share data that permanently identifies a particular device.

We do not sell customer information to anyone. Nor do we share customer information with organizations other than our affiliates that would use it to contact you about their own products or services, as mentioned above in ‘How we collect, use and disclose your information’.

Protection of your personal information:

All personal information is safeguarded with appropriate security measures.

Your privacy choices:

Your information, your choice. If you don’t wish for your data to be collected with the Google Analytics features that we use at Lumenus, you can install the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on. The add-on instructs the Google Analytics script running on websites to prohibit sending information to Google Analytics. To opt-out of Analytics for the web, visit Google Analytics’ opt-out page and install the add-on for your browser. For more details on installing and uninstalling the add-on, please see the relevant help resources for your specific browser. Or read more about the Google Analytics opt-out browser.

We may occasionally use your personal information to tell you about other services and products, tools or opportunities that we believe may be of interest to you. If you would rather not receive this type of communication, please let us know through our Privacy Officer at our corporate office.
