Cookies, Web Beacons & Other Technologies
We sometimes collect anonymous information from visits to our sites to help us provide
better customer service. For example, we keep track of the domains from which people
visit and we also measure visitor activity on BizHOST.ca websites, but we do so in ways
that keep the information anonymous. This anonymous information is sometimes known as
"clickstream data." BizHOST.ca or its analytic vendors may use this data to analyze trends
and statistics and to help us provide better customer service.
Also, when we collect personal data from you in connection with a transaction we may extract some
information about that transaction in an anonymous format and combine it with other anonymous information
such as clickstream data. This anonymous information is used and analyzed only at an aggregate level
to help us understand trends and patterns. None of this information is reviewed at an
individual level. If you do not want your transaction details used in this manner, you
can either disable your cookies or opt-out at the order or request page.
We collect the anonymous information we mentioned in the previous paragraphs through the use
of various technologies, including one called "cookies". A cookie is an element of data that a
website can send to your browser, which may then be stored on your system. Some BizHOST.ca
pages use cookies, sent by BizHOST.ca or its third party vendors, or other technologies
to better serve you when you return to the site. You can set your browser to notify you
before you receive a cookie, giving you the chance to decide whether to accept it.
You can also set your browser to turn off cookies. If you do so, however, some areas
of some sites may not function properly.
Some BizHOST.ca websites also use Web beacon
technologies to better tailor those sites to provide better customer service. These
"Web beacons" are placed on a number of pages across BizHOST.ca websites. When a
visitor accesses these pages, an anonymous notice of that visit is generated which may
be processed by us or by our vendors. These Web beacons work in conjunction with cookies.
If you don't want to associate your anonymous cookie information with your visits to these
pages, you can set your browser to turn off cookies.
If you turn off cookies, web beacon
technologies will still detect anonymous visits to these pages, but the notices they
generate cannot be associated with other anonymous cookie information and are disregarded.
