Le Goût du Libre is committed to offering websites that respect visitors’ privacy. This page summarizes Le Goût du Libre’s policy and practices regarding the protection of personal information on its websites.

Le Goût du Libre’s websites do not automatically capture specific personal information about you, such as your name, telephone number, or email address. We will have access to this type of information only if you provide it to us by sending an email or entering it in a protected section of the site, such as a contact form.

All personal information retained or collected by Le Goût du Libre is protected under Quebec’s Act Respecting the Protection of Personal Information. This means that at each point of data collection, you will be asked for your consent before any information about you is gathered and you will be informed of the purposes for which the information is collected and how you can exercise your right of access to it.

Le Goût du Libre hosts its sites with a provider that monitors data transmissions on the network by keeping log information (logs) that may be used to detect any unauthorized attempts to upload or modify information or to cause other damage. The Internet Protocol (IP) addresses of the computers that contacted our website are received and recorded, including the date and time of the visit and the pages viewed. We do not attempt to link these addresses with the identities of individuals visiting our site unless we have detected an attempt to damage the site.

Le Goût du Libre occasionally uses “cookies” to determine how visitors use this site or which sites they previously visited. The “cookies” we use do not allow us to identify individuals. They are used to compile statistics on data transmission habits and evaluate the effectiveness of the site. It is recommended to use a browser that allows you to control “cookies”, such as Mozilla. Such software will inform you before a “cookie” is used so that you can refuse it; such refusal will not affect the site’s performance, nor will it restrict your ability to access information on the site. (A “cookie” is a file that may be unknowingly placed on your hard drive to track your visits to a site.)

Information relating to each visitor is used by Le Goût du Libre personnel who require it to respond to your requests or ensure system security. It is only if your request concerns another Le Goût du Libre service or office, or its employees, that we will forward the information you provided to those concerned. We do not use this information to create individually identifiable profiles, nor do we disclose it to anyone outside our organization.

Information related to site operation is sent to the webmaster so they can propose adjustments to optimize the site’s efficiency. The webmaster must handle all personal information received in connection with this website in compliance with the Act Respecting the Protection of Personal Information. You may send any questions, concerns, or comments regarding how the webmaster handles personal information on this site to the Le Goût du Libre Privacy Coordinator, whose contact details are provided below.
