What personal information we collect
When you visit our website, our web server automatically collects
a limited amount of information essential for the operation and
security of our website. Some of this information (e.g., browser
type) does not identify who you are, while other information, such
as your Internet domain name or IP address may identify you. The
extent of personal identification depends, in large part, on the
"naming standards" followed by your Internet Service Provider.
When you voluntarily send us electronic mail or complete
an electronic form that includes identifying information about you,
we will keep a record of this information so that we can respond
to you.
How we protect and use the personal information
that we collect
Collection, use, disclosure and retention of information must comply
with provisions of the Freedom of Information and Protection
of Privacy Act and the Document Disposal Act. Collected personal
information will only be used by authorized Royal British Columbia
Museum staff to fulfill the purpose for which it was originally
collected or for a use consistent with that purpose. We do not disclose
your information to other public bodies or individuals except as
authorized by law. We keep the information only for the length of
time necessary to fulfill the purpose(s) for which it was collected.
Our website contains links to other websites. We are not responsible
for the privacy practices of such websites.
