Canadian Laws About Privacy

Many organizations and businesses collect personal information from individuals for a variety of reasons. However, PIPEDA (The Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act), has created many rules and guidelines to help protect individual’s privacy. If a business or organization collects personal information, PIPEDA outlines steps they must take to protect privacy. Private-sector organizations are obliged to: protect your personal information through appropriate security measures and to destroy it when it’s no longer needed for the original purposes (www.priv.gc.ca).

This is one reason why destroying hard drives is so important. Simply erasing memory off an old hard drive does not guarantee your files will be permanently erased. It is best to completely destroy hard drives to remain compliant with PIPEDA and to ensure your business does not become a target for crime, such as identity theft or cybercrime.
