Privacy and the Internet

For example, registration is needed in order to access the online forums. This is needed to ensure that proper site access and content standards are rigorously upheld.

In all such cases, CHC will collect only information that is voluntarily provided by the user and undertakes that such information will be kept strictly confidential. Individual information provided will not be sold or made available to a third party.

CHC reserves the right, however, to perform statistical analyses of user behaviour and characteristics, in order to measure interest in and use of the various sections of its sites so as to improve design and navigation and to gather user information. Only aggregated data from these analyses, not individual data, shall be used for this purpose.
