Why Data Privacy is Important for your School in Canada

In November 2020, there were significant changes to the rights and responsibilities included within the existing federal private sector privacy law (the PIPEDA). 

Several provinces have also started looking at enhancing privacy protections in 2020 as well, meaning that you need to be aware of what your responsibilities are with regards to Data Privacy.
