Introduction
With the development of new communication tools, it is necessary to pay particular attention to the protection of privacy. That’s why we’re committed to respecting the confidentiality of the personal information we collect.
Our goal is to provide you with the most personalized, relevant and user-friendly Web experience possible. Your personal information is used primarily to efficiently provide you with relevant information or services.
The Association des Archambault d’Amérique does not sell, rent or otherwise distribute the personal information you provide to us. The Association will not disclose your personal information except with your knowledge and consent, as described in this policy or as may be required by law or to protect the rights or property of the Association des Archambault d’Amérique.
Personal information collection
The personal information we collect is gathered through forms and through the interactivity established between you and our website. As indicated in the following section, we also use cookies and/or log files to gather information about you.
The Association des Archambault d’Amérique owns a database on Heredis genealogy software, which contains over 40,000 individuals from more than 12 generations back to the ancestor Jacques. This family tree is not published on the Internet, but is on a computer dedicated to genealogy, owned by the Association des Archambault d’Amérique. Entries made before June 19, 2019 come from Ancestry, data accumulated by an Archambault who offered us his family tree to start our tree. To read Ancestry’s Privacy Policy, click here. Entries made in the Heredis tree thereafter come from information voluntarily entrusted to us by our members, information that has been verified as reliable, and is the property of the Association des Archambault d’Amérique, which may use it for genealogical purposes. This family tree is not published on the Internet. Only authorized persons have access.
Cookies
Contrary to popular belief, cookies do not extract private or personal information from your computer’s memory. Their only use by our site is to allow you to perform different tasks during a single work session on our site.
Our website uses Google Analytics, a tool for measuring web traffic and compiling statistics.
Google Analytics may use cookies to collect information about your use of the website, which will be stored on servers, including those in the United States. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google’s behalf. To view the Google Analytics privacy policy, click here.
The information collected by the tool includes, for example, the pages you visit, the date, time, duration and frequency of your visits, and the links you click on. Your computer’s operating system type and language, the name of your Internet service provider and your approximate geographical location (just the region) are also part of the information collected. Your IP address is also collected, but anonymized (truncated) to ensure the confidentiality of your information. Anonymizing an IP address prevents the identity of an Internet user from being known through it.
Google will use the information collected only to produce statistics and reports on navigation on this site, which allows the Association des Archambault d’Amérique to improve its electronic service delivery. Google will not associate the information collected on this site with any other data held by Google.
