may be needed to enter a members only area, or to request
a Snuffbox Inc. brochure or participate in an online forum.
This kind of registration helps us to ensure that content

Information that may be requested in order to personalize
the www.snuffbox.ca homepage or
any other Snuffbox Inc. site section would be a similar
example.
In all such cases, Snuffbox Inc. will collect only information
that is voluntarily provided by the user and undertakes
that such information will be kept strictly confidential. Individual
information provided to Snuffbox Inc. to gain access to
any part of the Snuffbox Inc. site will not be sold or

statistical analyses of user behaviour and characteristics,

that browser's movement through the site over several sessions.
Through cookies, a web site can recognize repeat users,
facilitate the user's access to and use of the site and
allow a site to track usage behaviour that will allow content
improvements. Snuffbox Inc. uses cookies only for the above-mentioned
