How we use cookies and similar technologies on our website

1. Introduction

This Cookie Policy explains how TechInnovate Canada ("we," "our," or "us") uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website at techinnovatecanada.ca ("Website"). It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.

By using or accessing our Website, you agree to this Cookie Policy. This policy may change from time to time, so please check it periodically.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and provide information to the owners of the site.

Cookies allow websites to remember your actions and preferences (such as login, language, font size, and other display preferences) over a period of time, so you don't have to keep re-entering them whenever you come back to the site or browse from one page to another.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

We use different types of cookies for various reasons. These include:

3.1 Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the Website to function properly. They enable basic functions like page navigation and access to secure areas of the Website. The Website cannot function properly without these cookies.

Examples of necessary cookies we use:

  • cookie_consent: Records your cookie preferences so we can respect your choices.
  • session_id: Maintains your session state across page requests.

These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our Website by collecting and reporting information anonymously. They help us measure and improve the performance of our site.

  • _gid: Google Analytics cookie used to distinguish users (expires after 24 hours).
  • _gat: Google Analytics cookie used to throttle request rate (expires after 1 minute).

3.3 Marketing Cookies

4. Other Tracking Technologies

4.2 Local Storage Objects

We may use Local Storage Objects (LSOs) such as HTML5 to store content information and preferences. Various browsers may offer their own management tools for removing HTML5 LSOs.

5. Cookie Management
