What personal information do we collect, and how is it used?

We need to collect information in order to deliver our services. The type of personal information we collect includes name, contact information, employment history, education, job qualifications and special abilities, and other résumé type information required by program funders; information compiled while providing our programs including data reasonably required to assist clients with our counselling and program services. Be assured that we will only collect data that is absolutely necessary to provide the services requested and that this data is used exclusively in connection with these services.

Protecting your privacy

We do not share personal information with any third parties without your written consent. Government agencies that fund or are connected with services we provide may oblige us to disclose certain information to them, or to use databases or other tools they provide. Privacy issues for such tools are the responsibility of the applicable government department, not ours. Once provided to government agencies, personal information is governed by applicable public sector privacy legislation and the government agency’s applicable privacy policies. We may use information collected to make contact with clients and graduates to advise them of specific initiatives undertaken by the organization. If such contact is not desired, clients and participants must advise their counsellor / supervisors / program coordinator. Personal information is stored in a combination of paper and electronic files, both of which are protected by security measures appropriate to the nature of the information.
