  • Visit the Add-on Page:
  • Users should go to the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on page.
  • Install the Add-on:
  • On the add-on page, users will find a button that says “Download the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.” Clicking this button will initiate the download and installation process.
  • Install the Add-on in the Browser:
  • Depending on the user’s browser (Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer, Safari), the installation process may vary. Users should follow the instructions provided for their specific browser to complete the installation.
  • Verify Installation:
  • Once the add-on is installed, users can verify its presence by checking for an icon in their browser toolbar.

Users can confirm their opt-out status by visiting websites that use Google Analytics. If the add-on is working correctly, they should see a message indicating that their data will not be sent to Google Analytics.

CalOPPA (California Online Privacy Protection Act)

CalOPPA is the first state law in the nation to require commercial websites and online services to post a privacy policy. The law’s reach stretches well beyond California to require any person or company in the United States (and conceivably the world) that operates websites collecting Personally Identifiable Information from California consumers to post a conspicuous privacy policy on its website stating exactly the information being collected and those individuals or companies with whom it is being shared.

CalOPPA requires us to disclose the following:
  • We collect Personally Identifiable Information (PII) from California consumers, including but not limited to name and email address (voluntarily provided when users fill out “contact us form”, apply to an open job opportunity, or subscribe to our newsletter) as described in our data collection section.
  • Our website uses Google Analytics for analytics purposes. This service may collect information about your online activities over time and across different websites. Please refer to Google’s Privacy Policy for more information.
  • At this time, our website does not respond to “Do Not Track” signals. We collect information about your visit for the purpose of analyzing website traffic and improving user experience. If you have concerns about your privacy, please refer to our “Opting Out of Google Analytics” section for information on how to manage your preferences.
  • Once this privacy policy is created, we will add a link to it on the footer of our home page or as a minimum, on the first significant page after entering our website.
  • Our Privacy Policy link includes the word ‘Privacy’ and can easily be found on the page specified above.

You will be notified of any Privacy Policy changes by visiting our Privacy Policy Page (this page).

Users can change their personal information by sending us a support ticket via email (info@fractionenergy.ca), or calling us at780-567-5379

COPPA (Children Online Privacy Protection Act)

When it comes to the collection of personal information from children under the age of 13 years old, the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) puts parents in control. The Federal Trade Commission, United States’ consumer protection agency, enforces the COPPA Rule, which spells out what operators of websites and online services must do to protect children’s privacy and safety online.

We do not specifically market to children under the age of 13 years old.

CASL (Canada Anti-Spam Law)

If you are a Canadian user receiving commercial electronic messages from us, please be aware that we comply with the Canada Anti-Spam Law (CASL). We seek and obtain explicit consent before sending commercial electronic messages and provide clear options for unsubscribing from such communications.

CAN-SPAM Act

If you have subscribed to our newsletters or promotional emails and wish to unsubscribe, you can do so by following the instructions included in the email (located in the footer). We are committed to complying with the CAN-SPAM Act and strive to provide transparent and user-friendly options for managing your email preferences.
