Policies and Practices Governing the Management of Personal Information<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n


MEI Sciage et Forage is committed to protecting all personal information collected and used in the course of its business activities. Our Privacy Policy outlines our standards for the collection, use, disclosure, and retention of your personal information, as well as your right to access it.<\/p>\r\n

Definition and Purpose of Personal Information Collection<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n
Personal information refers to data relating to an “identifiable individual.” It includes information that, alone or combined with other data, can identify you as an individual. Professional information such as corporate email addresses and business telephone numbers is not considered personal information within the meaning of the applicable legislation.<\/address>\r\n

Your Privacy on Our Website<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n
When you access our website https:\/\/www.meisciage.com\/, your computer and our server automatically exchange data. This exchange is necessary for the server to deliver files compatible with the device you are using. The information exchanged includes:

\u00b7 the identification of your Internet service provider;
\u00b7 your IP address (the numerical address used to identify a computer connected to the Internet, for example: 123.45.67.890);
\u00b7 the type of browser (for example: Firefox, Explorer) and operating system (for example: Windows, macOS) you are using;
\u00b7 the pages you visit;
\u00b7 the date and time you access those pages;
\u00b7 the referring website address if you reached our site from another website.

Most of the information exchanged automatically between computers does not identify you personally. It is collected solely because of technological requirements inherent to Internet browsing.

Cookies are used to facilitate navigation throughout this website. These cookies do not collect personal information about you. You may configure your browser at any time to block cookies. However, doing so may prevent you from accessing certain features available on the site.<\/address>
If you use a computer in a public place or share a computer with other users, be sure to clear your browsing history before ending each session. Please refer to our Cookie Policy for more information.

If you wish to contact us by email, you must provide your name, email address, and write your message in the spaces provided for that purpose.

Our staff handles electronic communications with the same level of confidentiality as paper correspondence.

Please note that you should not include any additional personal information in your email messages when contacting us. Your personal information will only be used by our staff to process your request.<\/address>\r\n

Personal Information Collected from Our Employees<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n
When you become an employee of the company, we collect only the personal information required for your employment. The information collected will be specifically identified in the consent form you sign upon hiring.

Whenever we obtain information about you, we first request your written consent for the collection, use, or disclosure of your personal information for the purposes identified.

We will seek your consent for any additional collection, use, or disclosure of your personal information, or whenever the purposes for which your information was originally collected change.

We will not disclose your personal information without your consent unless authorized by applicable privacy legislation. Where disclosure is authorized by law, we will make every effort to disclose only the information that is strictly necessary under the circumstances and, whenever possible, we will inform you accordingly.<\/address>\r\n
