We encourage our users to be aware when they leave AOR.ca and to read the privacy statements of each website that collects Personal Information.

They keep a record of your preferences, making your subsequent visits to the site more efficient. Cookies may store a variety of information, including, the number of times that you access a website, your registration information and the number of times that you view a particular page or other items on the site.

Please review privacy policies and terms of service on social media sites if you have any questions about their privacy or security practices.

The social media sites where AOR has Social Media Pages may provide cumulative information and analysis to AOR about your use of our Social Media Pages.
