Cookies
A cookie is a small file containing certain pieces of information that a website creates when you visit the site. It can track how and when you use a site, which site you visited immediately before, and it can store that information about you. A cookie is not a program, code or plug-in. Cookies used by the OPSEU do not contain personally identifying information, do not give us access to anything on your hard drive, and cannot do anything to your computer.
There are two common types of cookies, “session cookies” and “persistent cookies.” Session cookies store information only for the length of time that you are connected to a website – they are written to a temporary location on your hard drive. Once you leave the website, the originator of the cookie no longer has the information that was contained on it.
The information stored in “persistent cookies” is written onto your hard drive and remains there until the expiry date of the cookie. Our website may use persistent cookies that makes it easier for your computer to interact with the dynamic content on our site. This cookie contains a random number – no personally identifying information is contained in it and OPSEU does not use this cookie for tracking purposes.

When entering another website, you may find that it has its own privacy policy or statement that you can review in determining whether to proceed.
