Users in Canada and the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA)

The Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act is a Canadian law relating to data privacy. It governs how private sector organizations collect, use and disclose personal information in the course of commercial business.

The 10 principles include:

  • Accountability. Organizations are responsible for the personal information they store and need to appoint someone to ensure the organization is compliant with the 10 principles.
  • Identifying purposes. Organizations need to state the purposes for data collection before or at the time of data collection.
  • Consent. Organizations need to obtain implicit or explicit meaningful consent in order to collect, share, and use personal information from users. Organizations can choose to implement either opt-in or opt-out measures in order to obtain consent, depending on the sensitivity of the personal information they have collected.
  • Limiting collection. Organizations need to only collect the necessary amount of information for processing purposes.
  • Limiting use, disclosure, and retention. Organizations need to use personal information only for their stated purposes unless the users give additional consent.
  • Accuracy. Organizations need to keep personal information accurate, complete, and up to date.
  • Safeguards. Organizations need to implement safety measures to protect the personal data.
  • Openness. Organizations need to be transparent to the public about their data handling. They can apply the openness principle by including a privacy policy on their website.
  • Individual access. Organizations need to honor their users’ rights in accessing, reviewing, and correcting personal information.
  • Challenging compliance. Individuals have the right to challenge an organization’s compliance with these 10 principles. Individuals should address their inquiries to the person responsible for the organization’s compliance with PIPEDA or the chief privacy officer.
