When you visit ES24.CA, we collect your Internet Protocol (IP) address. An IP address is often associated with the portal you used to enter the Internet, like your Internet service provider (ISP), company, association, or university. While an IP address may reveal your ISP or geographic area, we cannot determine your identity solely based upon your IP address. However, we may link the last IP address you used to access ES24.CA to Personal Information you provide us. Where, according to local law, IP addresses and the like are considered Personal Information, we treat them as such.

Do We Use Web Beacons?

In contrast to Cookies, which are stored in a user’s computer hard drive, web beacons are embedded invisibly on web pages and are about the size of the period at the end of this sentence. Web beacons help us better manage content on ES24.CA by informing us what content is effective, monitoring how users navigate ES24.CA, counting users of ES24.CA, and counting how many e-mails sent by us were actually opened.
