FAQs
We cover the basics of this Canadian privacy law and its implications below.
PIPEDA applies to any private-sector organization that collects, use, or disclose personal information during commercial activities. These include banks, telecommunications companies, inter-provincial or international transportation companies, and airlines. The law also applies to businesses that operate in Canada and transmits personal information across national or provincial borders.
According to the law, individuals in Canada have the right to access their personal information, the right to accuracy and completeness of personal information, and the right to withdrawal consent. They also have the right to report data subject rights violations to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada (OPC), which oversees enforcing the law.
