Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy The University of Regina collects and creates information about students (“personal information”) under the authority of the University of Regina Act, and in accordance with the Local Authority Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (Saskatchewan) and the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (Canada), for purposes of admission, registration, and other decisions on students’ academic status, and the administration of the University and its programs and services. Some of this information may be disclosed to the relevant students’ society and alumni association, and will be reported as required by federal or provincial authority. Information regarding the admission of current high school students may be shared with the student’s current high school as needed. Any misrepresentation may be shared with other post-secondary institutions. By enrolling in courses at the University of Regina, students consent to the collection, use, and disclosure of personal information as described above.
If you have any questions about the collection, use, or disclosure of this information by the University, please contact the Head, Access to Information and Protection of Privacy at (306) 585-4956. Disclosure to Statistics Canada Statistics Canada is the national statistical agency. As such, Statistics Canada carries out hundreds of surveys each year on a wide range of matters, including education. It is essential to be able to follow students across time and institutions to understand, for example, the factors affecting enrolment demand at post-secondary institutions. The increased emphasis on accountability for public investment means that it is also important to understand ‘outcomes’. In order to carry out such studies, Statistics Canada asks all colleges and universities to provide to Statistics Canada student identification information (student’s name, student ID number, Social Insurance Number), student contact information (address and telephone number), student demographic characteristics, enrolment information, previous education, and labour force activity. The Federal Statistics Act provides the legal authority for Statistics Canada to obtain access to personal information held by educational institutions. The information may be used only for statistical purposes, and the confidentiality provisions of the Statistics Act prevent the information from being released in any way that would identify a student. Students who do not wish to have their information used are able to ask Statistics Canada to remove their identification and contact information from the national database. Further information on the use of this information can be obtained from Statistics Canada’s web site: www.statcan.gc.ca.
