Your Privacy Rights (Personal Information Protection Act, PIPA - Alberta, Canada)

​

Collection and consent

Types of consent

Before collecting personal information, an organization must usually:

• get a person’s consent

• collect the information directly from that person

 

A person can consent to the collection, use or disclosure of personal information for reasonable purposes (which is what a reasonable person would consider appropriate under the circumstances).

Someone may consent verbally or in writing, including via electronic communications.

Someone is ‘deemed to consent’ if he or she, without actually giving consent, voluntarily provides the information to the organization and it is reasonable for that purpose. This is also called ‘implied consent’.

Someone can also consent if they do not ‘opt out’ in a reasonable time when he or she receives clear and understandable notification and is given a reasonable opportunity to decline by the organization.

Even if an organization gets consent, it can only collect, use, or disclose personal information for the purposes provided in the notice and to the extent reasonable for that purpose. An organization may not provide false or misleading information in its notice.

Withdraw or change consent

Individuals have the right to withdraw or change their consent, subject to legal limitations. As soon as an organization is notified of this, the organization must inform the individual of the likely consequences it they are not obvious.

If a person changes his or her consent, the organization must abide by the new terms of consent. If the person withdraws his or her consent the organization must stop collecting, using or disclosing his or her personal information immediately.

 

Collect with consent and notice

An organization can ask for a person’s consent to collect, use or disclose his or her personal information for reasonable purposes. In most cases, the organization must collect the personal information directly from that person.

 

Before or while collecting the information, the organization must:

• give notice that it intends to collect personal information and provide the purposes for the collection

• give the name, position or title of the person who is able to answer the individual’s questions

 

The organization must give the person a reasonable opportunity to decline his or her consent.

​

Collect without consent

In some cases an organization may collect personal information about someone without his or her consent.

​

An organization can only collect personal information without consent if:

• it is clearly in the person’s interests, and

  • that person’s consent cannot be obtained in a timely way, or

  • that person would not reasonably be expected to withhold consent

• there is a legal authority for the collection

  • it is authorized by a statute of Alberta or Canada, a regulation of Alberta or Canada, a bylaw of a local government body, or a legislative instrument of a professional regulatory organization

  • it is in accordance with a form provided under a statute or regulation of Alberta

• it is for an inspection or audit

  • if the audit is either of or by the organization and is authorized by a statute or regulation of Alberta or Canada

  • if it is by another organization and it is not practical to collect non-identifying information for the purpose of the audit

• it is reasonable for the purposes of an investigation or legal proceeding

• it is to collect or pay a debt

  • it is necessary to collect a debt owed to the organization

  • it is necessary to pay a debt owed by the organization to the person​
