Planning for Success: A Guide to PIAs

Ontario public sector institutions must meet high standards of care and trust whenever collecting, using and disclosing personal and other sensitive information. Any public institution considering new information technologies, systems, and program services which may affect privacy are strongly encouraged to complete a privacy impact assessment (PIA).

The IPC’s new guide, Planning for Success provides institutions with step-by-step advice on how to carry out a PIA from beginning to end.
