We're excited to announce that the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) has been added to our extensive library of supported compliance frameworks!

What is PIPEDA?

PIPEDA is Canada's federal law governing the collection, use, and disclosure of personal information by private sector organizations. It ensures the privacy rights of individuals in Canada and sets out clear guidelines for organizations handling personal data.

Why is PIPEDA important?

  • Compliance Necessity: Businesses operating in Canada or handling the personal data of Canadians must comply with PIPEDA to avoid hefty fines and reputational damage.

  • Data Privacy Best Practices: PIPEDA promotes responsible data handling practices, fostering trust and building stronger customer relationships.

Who needs PIPEDA compliance?

  • Any private sector organization in Canada that collects, uses, or discloses personal information.

  • Businesses outside of Canada that handle the personal data of Canadian residents.
