Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA)
The Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) is a Canadian federal privacy law that governs how private organizations collect, use, and disclose personal information in the course of commercial activities. PIPEDA aims to balance an individual's right to privacy with the need of organizations to collect and use personal data for legitimate business purposes.
