Privacy Impact Assessments: Public Health Agency of Canada
On this page
Overview
The Privacy Act provides Canadian citizens, permanent residents or individuals present in Canada with the right to access personal information held about them by the government. It also protects against unauthorized disclosure of that personal information. In addition, the Act strictly controls how the federal government will collect, use, store, disclose and dispose of any personal information.
Privacy impact assessment reports
The Government of Canada is committed to privacy and the protection of personal information used in the course of providing programs and services to the public.
To assure Canadians that privacy principles are being taken into account when there are proposals for the design, implementation and evolution of programs and services that raise privacy issues, the Agency's ATIP Office assists in the development and maintenance of Privacy Impact Assessments and communicates the results of Privacy Impact Assessments to the Privacy Commissioner and the public.
