Terms of Service

WireIE is committed to providing a website that respects the privacy of visitors. This privacy notice summarizes the privacy practices for WireIE’s online activities.

The nature of the Internet is such that Web servers automatically collect certain information about a visit to a website, including the visitor’s Internet Protocol (IP) address. IP addresses are unique numbers assigned by Internet Service Providers (ISP) to all devices used to access the Internet. Web servers automatically log the IP addresses of visitors to their sites. The IP address, on its own, does not identify an individual. However, in certain circumstances, such as with the co-operation of an ISP for example, it could be used to identify an individual using the site. For this reason, WireIE considers the IP address to be personal information, particularly when combined with other data automatically collected when a visitor requests a Web page such as the page or pages visited, date and time of the visit.

Any personal information you provide is protected under the federal Privacy Act. This means that you have a right to know when information is being collected, the purpose for which it is being collected, and that you have a right to access the information (see listing in Info Source). We are legally required to retain any personal information provided by you for a minimum of two years after using it, so you have reasonable opportunity to obtain it. After the period of two years, personal information will be destroyed.

Unless otherwise noted, the WireIE website does not automatically gather 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 to us by e-mail, by telephone or by completing an online request form.

Information on individual visitors is used by WireIE employees who need to know the information in order to respond to a visitor’s request or to ensure the security of this system. We do not use the information to create individual profiles, nor do we sell, share or disclose your information to any type of mailing list. We may offer to put you on a WireIE mailing list but only if directed by you. You may, at any time, request to be removed from the service.

In cases where services are provided by organizations outside of WireIE, such as social media platforms or mobile applications, IP addresses may be recorded by the Web server of the third-party service provider.

Communicating with WireIE

If you choose to send WireIE an email or complete a feedback form online, your personal information is used by WireIE in order to respond to your inquiry. WireIE does not use the information to create individual profiles nor does it disclose the information to anyone. Any disclosure of your personal information is in accordance with the Privacy Act.

Emails and other electronic methods used to communicate with WireIE are not secure unless it is specifically stated on a Web page. Therefore, it is recommended that you do not send sensitive personal information.

Digital Markers (including cookies)

A digital marker is a resource created by the visitors’ browser in order to remember certain pieces of information for the Web server to reference during the same or subsequent visit to the website. Examples of digital markers are “cookies” or HTML5 web storage. Some examples of what digital markers do are as follows:

  • They allow a website to recognize a previous visit each time the visitor accesses the site
  • They track what information is viewed on a site which helps website administrators ensure visitors find what they are looking for


WireIE uses sessional and persistent digital markers on some portions of its website. During your on-line visit, your browser exchanges data with the WireIE Web server. The digital markers used do not allow WireIE to identify individuals.

You may adjust your browser settings to reject digital markers, including cookies, if you so choose. However, it may affect your ability to interact with WireIE’s website.

Web Analytics

Web analytics is the collection, analysis, measurement, and reporting of data about Web traffic and visits for purposes of understanding and optimizing Web usage. Information in digital markers may be used for the purpose of web analytics to remember your online interactions with WireIE’s website.

WireIE uses Google Analytics to improve its web site. When your computer requests a WireIE Web page, our institution collects the following types of information for Web analytics:

  • the originating IP address
  • the date and time of the request
  • the type of browser used
  • the page(s) visited


WireIE uses Google Analytics and the information collected is disclosed to Google Inc., an external third party service provider. Your IP address is anonymized prior to being stored on the service provider’s servers in order to help safeguard your privacy. The information collected is de-personalized by activating the anonymization feature in Google Analytics. For further information about Google Analytics, please refer to the Google Analytics Privacy Policy.

Data collected for Web analytics purposes goes outside of Canada to the United States and may be subject to the governing legislation of that country, the USA Patriot Act.

Protecting the Security of WireIE Websites

WireIE 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 address of the computer that has contacted our website, 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.

This information is collected pursuant to section 161 of the Financial Administration Act. The information may be shared with appropriate law enforcement authorities if suspected criminal activities are detected.
