Website Privacy Policy

This website is maintained by the Addiction Services of Thames Valley (ADSTV), a community based service funded by Southwest Local Health Integration Network.

We are a government funded organization based in London, Ontario, Canada that provides screening, assessment, treatment, and prevention services to persons who are concerned about alcohol use, drug use, impaired driving issues and/or problem gambling.

The ADSTV Privacy Policy is based on guidelines, as defined by Canadian law. General policies can be viewed at the Privacy Commissioner of Canada web site.

ADSTV respects every person’s right to privacy. We believe the protection of personal information is a serious matter. Our client’s information is strictly confidential. We will never sell, rent or subscribe any client’s name to any third party or to any outside organization. The ADSTV web site has been designed according to generally accepted web site management practices.

We do use cookies to track web site visitors. Visitors can safely browse this web site without having provided any personal identity information. However, general user trends and patterns are gathered via web site “log files” in order to help us maintain, evaluate and improve our website. Log files track global indicators such as the total number of visitors, total pages viewed, most popular documents retrieved, time of day, etc.

Data which may be collected from the use of contact through email or telephone may in fact be used in the aggregate in order to give us further demographic information about the entire ADSTV audience.

Visitors using this web site will not be contacted unless a request by that visitor for information has been made. Requesting information can be achieved by using the contact form found on the “Contact” page. This request may involve disclosing your Name, Address, Telephone, and/or return Email. It is understood by all parties, that any personal information you supply would be necessary in order for us to respond to your inquiry.
