Frequently Asked Questions

Canada's federal data privacy law is the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA). PIPEDA was enacted in 2001 and governs the collection, use, and disclosure of personal information by private sector organizations operating across Canada, except for those governed by provincial privacy laws deemed to be substantially similar to PIPEDA.

Under the GDPR, any organization that processes the personal data of individuals in the EU must comply with the regulation, regardless of where the organization is based. This means that Canadian businesses and organizations that collect or process the personal data of individuals in the EU must comply with the GDPR.

Any company that handles the personal data of Canadian citizens must ensure that its Privacy Policy complies with applicable data protection regulations in Canada. A privacy policy should include the purpose of collection, collection methods and categories of data collected, how personal data will be used and disclosed, consent requirements, security safeguards, mechanisms to honor data subject rights, retention periods, and the organization’s accountability, to name a few.
