Skate Canada Privacy Policy

 

Introduction:

Skate Canada is committed to protecting the privacy of its employees, contractors, consultants, suppliers, volunteers, registrants (herein referred to as “individual”) and any other confidential business information. The purpose of this policy is to preserve the privacy of the individual and Skate Canada by outlining the obligations and procedures for dealing with personal, privileged and/or confidential information.

 

Scope:

This policy applies to all individuals, employees, contractors, volunteers, suppliers, and consultants of Skate Canada or anyone else who is granted access to personal, privileged, and/or confidential information.

 

Definitions:

Personal information also includes information that may relate to the work performance of the individual, any allegations, investigations or findings of wrongdoing, misconduct or discipline. Personal information does not include job title, business contact information or job description.

Policy:

All individuals at one time or another may receive personal, privileged and/or confidential information which may concern other individuals. Individuals are obligated to ensure that personal information to which they may have access remains confidential, is only used for the purposes for which it was collected is not disclosed without authorization or used for personal gain. Any individual who discloses personal information, contrary to this policy will be subject to disciplinary measures.

Individuals are required to follow the 10 Fair Information Principles and procedures regarding the collection, use and disclosure of personal information as set out in this policy.

  1. Accountability: Skate Canada is accountable to those whose personal information comes under its custody for ensuring that their information is protected in a manner consistent with this policy. Accountability for Skate Canada’s compliance with the policy rests with the Safe Sport Director, or delegate.
  2. Identifying Purposes: Skate Canada will identify the purpose for which it collects, uses, and discloses personal information prior to collecting the information. Skate Canada only collects, uses or discloses personal information for purposes consistent with meeting its mandate and core functions.
  3. Consent for Collection, Use or Disclosure: Knowledge and consent of the individual are required for the collection, use or disclosure of identifiable personal information, except where legally permissible. Notice of Collection statement must be communicated to registrants at registration (Appendix A). Knowledge and consent of the individual is not required for the collection, use or disclosure of non-identifiable personal information. Individuals with a direct relationship with Skate Canada may withdraw their consent and can do so by contacting Skate Canada.
  4. Collection: Skate Canada limits the collection of personal information to that which is necessary for the purposes it has identified. Skate Canada collects personal information by fair and lawful means.
  5. Use and Retention: Skate Canada does not use identifiable personal information for purposes other than those identified prior to collection, except with the consent of the individual or as required by law. “Use” includes processing identifiable information in such a way that it is no longer identifiable. Skate Canada allows only authorized staff to access and use specific data holdings of personal information on a “need-to-know” basis, that is, when required to perform their duties. Personal information is retained only as long as necessary for the fulfillment of purposes identified at collection. For purposes of long-term analysis and reporting, Skate Canada may retain personal information permanently. Personal information that is no longer required to fulfill the identified purposes is destroyed, erased, or made anonymous in a secure manner.
  6. Disclosure: Skate Canada may disclose or publish non-identifiable (e.g. aggregated) personal information only, having used reasonable precautions to ensure that individuals cannot foreseeably be identified by linking this information with other information. Skate Canada may disclose identifiable personal information only when: a) the recipient is the data provider that originally provided the identifiable personal information., or b) the disclosure is required by legislation, or c) Skate Canada has obtained the consent of the individuals concerned.
  7. Accuracy: Personal information will be as accurate, complete and up-to-date as necessary for the purposes for which Skate Canada collects, uses or discloses it. Skate Canada updates personal information when necessary to fulfill the purposes for which the information is collected, used or disclosed. Data providers are responsible for ensuring the personal information they provide to Skate Canada is accurate, complete and up-to-date for the purpose specified.
  8. Safeguards: Skate Canada protects personal information with security safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity and identifying nature of the information. The security safeguards protect personal information against loss or theft, as well as unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use, or modification and will protect personal information that it holds or transmits regardless of the format in which it is held. Care is used in the disposal or destruction of personal information to prevent unauthorized parties from gaining access to the information.
  9. Transparency and Openness: Those whose personal information Skate Canada collects, uses and discloses are entitled to know what Skate Canada’s practices and policies are in connection with this information and to challenge those practices and policies. Skate Canada makes readily available information about its practices and policies in order to promote transparency and explicitness.
