Federal privacy legislation
Canada has 2 federal privacy laws: Privacy Act Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) The Privacy Act: gives individuals the right to access and request correction of their personal information held by federal government institutions, and specifies how the government can collect, use, disclose, and retain personal information It requires that government institutions develop and maintain an index of personal information holdings called Personal Information Banks (PIBs). The index is a means of organizing information for the purpose of public access. This ensures the registration of PIBs and that they are approved and identified in Information about Programs and Information Holdings (formerly Info Source). The Act provides the legal framework for protecting personal information, accessing personal information, data?matching, and controlling the use of SINs. For more information about the Privacy Act, visit the web site of the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada. The PIPEDA is a federal legislation that protects personal information. PIPEDA sets out principles that organizations, individuals, associations, partnerships, and trade unions must follow. Those principles apply when collecting, using, and disclosing personal information in the course of a commercial activity. PIPEDA applies to the commercial activities of: the federally regulated private sector (such as banks) retail sector publishing companies service industry manufacturers, and other provincially regulated organizations For more information about PIPEDA, visit the web site of the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada. The federal government may exempt: organizations or activities in provinces that have their own privacy laws if they are substantially similar to the federal law PIPEDA will continue to apply in those provinces to the federally regulated private sector. It will also apply to personal information in inter?provincial and international transactions by all organizations engaged in commercial activities. Oversight of both federal Acts rests with the Privacy Commissioner of Canada who has the authority to receive and investigate complaints.
