Document background
The Global Privacy Notice serves as a fundamental document for organizations operating in Canada and internationally, providing transparency about their personal information handling practices. It is required under Canadian privacy laws (PIPEDA/CPPA) and other global privacy regulations, ensuring compliance with various jurisdictional requirements. This document should be implemented when an organization collects, uses, or discloses personal information in the course of commercial activities, particularly when operating across multiple jurisdictions. The notice must be easily accessible, written in clear language, and regularly updated to reflect changes in privacy practices or regulatory requirements. It should address all aspects of data processing, from collection to disposal, while incorporating specific requirements for different jurisdictions where the organization operates.
