The Anger Management Program (“we,” “our,” or “us”) is committed to protecting your privacy and respecting your personal information. This Cookie Policy explains how we use cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website.

This Cookie Policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy.

1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your computer, smartphone, tablet, or other device when you visit a website. Cookies help websites function properly, remember your preferences, improve security, analyze website usage, and provide a better browsing experience.

Some cookies are deleted when you close your browser (“session cookies”), while others remain on your device until they expire or are deleted (“persistent cookies”).

2. Why We Use Cookies
We use cookies and similar technologies to:
– ensure our website functions properly;
– provide secure access to your account and online courses;
– remember your preferences and settings;
– analyze website traffic and improve our services;
– process online payments securely;
– maintain the security of our website; and
– comply with our legal obligations.

Whenever possible, we minimize the collection of personal information and only collect information that is necessary for the purposes described in this policy.

3. Types of Cookies We Use
Essential Cookies
Essential cookies are necessary for the operation of our website. They enable basic functions such as:
– secure login;
– user authentication;
– maintaining your course session;
– fraud prevention;
– website security; and
– processing online payments.

These cookies cannot be disabled because the website cannot function properly without them.

Analytics Cookies
With your consent, we use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our website so we can improve its performance, content, accessibility, and user experience.

Google Analytics may collect information such as:
– pages visited;
– time spent on our website;
– approximate geographic region;
– device type;
– browser type;
– operating system;
– referring website; and
– interactions with our website.

Google Analytics does not directly identify you. It uses several cookies to help us understand how visitors interact with our website. The information is aggregated and used solely to improve our website and services. For example,  the _ga cookie distinguishes unique visitors and generates anonymous usage statistics. It is retained for up to 2 years. The _gid cookie distinguishes visitors during a 24-hour period and expires after 24 hours. The _gat cookie is used to limit the rate of requests sent to Google Analytics servers to improve performance and expires after 1 minute. When Google Ads is linked with Google Analytics, the _gac_* cookie may be used to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns and is retained for up to 90 days.

Depending on the version of Google Analytics being used, older or legacy cookies such as __utma, __utmb, __utmc, __utmz, __utmv, __utmt, __utmx, and _gali may also be created. These legacy cookies are associated with earlier versions of Google Analytics and may not be used on all websites.

Functional Cookies
Functional cookies remember your preferences, including language settings and other personalized options, to improve your browsing experience.

Payment Cookies
When you purchase a course or service through our website, payments may be securely processed by PayPal.

PayPal may place cookies or similar technologies on your device to:
– securely process transactions;
– verify your identity;
– detect and prevent fraud;
– remember your payment preferences;
– comply with financial regulations; and
– improve the security of payment processing.

These cookies are managed by PayPal in accordance with PayPal’s own privacy practices. We do not receive or store your complete payment card information.

Our website may include services provided by trusted third parties that place cookies on your device, including:
– Google Analytics;

– Google reCAPTCHA (if enabled);
– PayPal;
– YouTube (if videos are embedded).

Each third party is responsible for its own privacy and cookie practices.

When you first visit our website, you may choose to:
– Accept all cookies;
– Reject non-essential cookies; or
– Customize your cookie preferences.

You may change or withdraw your consent at any time by clicking the Cookie Settings link available at the bottom of our website.

Withdrawing your consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing that occurred before your consent was withdrawn.

Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect the availability and functionality of some parts of our website, including course access, account login, and payment processing.

Some of the third-party services we use, including Google and PayPal, may process or store information on servers located outside Québec or Canada.

Where personal information is transferred outside Québec or Canada, we take reasonable measures to ensure that it receives an appropriate level of protection in accordance with applicable privacy legislation.
