The Government of Canada and the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat are committed to providing visitors with Web sites that respect their privacy. This Privacy Notice
summarizes the privacy policy and practices on the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat Web sites.
- Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat Web sites do not automatically gather any specific personal information from you, such as your name, phone number or e-mail
address. We would only obtain this type of information if you supply it by sending us an e-mail.
- All personal information created, held or collected by the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat is protected under the federal Privacy Act. This means that at any point of collection you will be asked for consent to collect your

- The Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat employs software programs to monitor network traffic to identify unauthorized attempts to upload or change information, or
otherwise cause damage. This software receives and records the Internet Protocol (IP) address of the computer that has contacted our Web site, the date and time of the
visit and the pages visited. We make no attempt to link these addresses with the identity of individuals visiting our site unless an attempt to damage the site has
been detected.
- A "cookie" is a computer (text) file that is sent to a visitor's Web browser, by a Web server, in order to remember certain pieces of information. "Per-session

- The Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat employs a fully automated Anti-Spam Filter to protect its employees and networks from spam. Incoming email messages that
are flagged by the software as spam are deleted automatically by the technology without notification. The program is set to block email that is considered obvious spam
because of its content (for example, pornographic, racist, get-rich-quick schemes, junk commercial solicitations) as determined by general industry best practice.
- Information on individual visitors is used by Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat employees, to respond to your request or to ensure the security of this system.
We will only share information you give to us with another government department, if your inquiry relates to that department. We do not use the information to create
