Collection of Information

For each visitor to an Employee Assistance of the Pacific Web site, the web server automatically recognizes and stores information such as the visitor's IP address.

When you visit Employee Assistance of the Pacific's sites or advertisements appearing thereon, or use one or more of the Employee Assistance of the Pacific Web site services, we may use an industry-wide technology called "cookies" which stores certain information on your computer and which will allow us to customize your experience to better match your interests and preferences or to simply facilitate your signing in to use the services. Most browsers will allow you to erase cookies from your computer hard drive, block acceptance of cookies, or receive a warning before a cookie is stored. However, if you block or erase cookies, we may not be able to restore any preferences or customization settings you previously specified and our ability to personalize your online experience would be limited. Please refer to your browser instructions or help screen to learn more about these functions.
