We strive to improve the access, design, and functionality of our website so that you are able to find the information you are seeking easily and quickly. In order to do this, we need to determine what information visitors access most frequently, and we may do this by tracking statistics such as IP address, browser type, domain name, access times and referring website addresses. These statistics are used to improve our website and ensure that it provides an optimal Web experience for visitors. When you come onto our site, the site will check to determine which browser you are using (i.e., Internet Explorer, Chrome) so that you are provided with the proper style sheet for that browser so that you may best view our site. We do not link server log information to any other data in a way that would enable us to identify individual visitors. Information collected through this website is not shared or sold with any third-party.
Some information may be automatically collected by our website through the use of cookies. The cookies help us recognize repeat users, facilitate the user’s access to the site and allow us to track usage behaviour that will lead to content improvements. PCPCRC uses cookies only for the above-mentioned purposes and will not use them to identify users. PCPCRC does not sell, give, or disclose information gathered on its website to any third-party.

PCPCRC uses its best efforts but is not responsible for the results of any search results that reference sites and information located worldwide throughout the Internet. Because some of the content on the Internet consists of material that is adult-oriented or otherwise objectionable to some people, the results of your use of PCPCRC tool may automatically and unintentionally generate links or references to objectionable material. PCPCRC can make no claim that such surprises will not occur. Computerized search technology does not give you search results limited to only the websites that you were seeking. There may be extraneous referenced results as well.
We will revise this statement as needed.
