Privacy Notice

The Government of Canada and the Public Service Labour Relations Board (PSLRB) are committed to providing websites that respect visitors’ privacy. This page summarizes the privacy policy and practices related to the PSLRB website.

• The PSLRB website does not automatically gather any specific personal information from you, such as your name, phone number or email address. We only obtain that information if you supply it by email or by registering in a secure area of the site.
• All personal information created, held or collected by this organization in relation to persons visiting its website is protected under the federal Privacy Act. This means that at any point of collection you will be asked for consent to collect your information and that you will be informed of the purpose for which it is being collected and of how to exercise your right to access that information.
• The PSLRB uses software to monitor network traffic to identify unauthorized attempts to upload or change information or to otherwise cause damage. The software receives and records the Internet Protocol (IP) addresses of computers that contact our website, the dates and times of the visits and the pages visited. We make no attempt to link those IP addresses with the identities of individuals visiting our site unless an attempt to damage the site has been detected.
• The PSLRB does not normally use "cookies" to track how visitors use its site or to determine sites that the visitors previously viewed. The system will notify you before any cookies are used so that you may refuse them. (A "cookie" is a file that may be placed on your hard drive without your knowledge by a website to allow it to monitor your use of the site.)
• Information about individual visitors is used by those PSLRB employees who need to know the information in order to respond to the visitors’ requests or to ensure the security of the system. We share the information you give us with other government departments only if your inquiry relates to another department. We do not use the information to create individual profiles or disclose it to anyone outside the federal government.
• The PSLRB’s Policy on Openness and Privacy explains the measures that have been taken to prevent Internet searches of full-text decisions posted on the PSLRB’s website. The only decision-related information on the website indexed by Internet search engines are decision summaries and the PSLRB’s annual reports. We cannot guarantee that the technological measures will always be respected or free of mistakes or malfunctions. Please address your questions to the webmaster at webmaster-webmestre@pslrb.gc.ca.
