What you get
Ownership, lifecycle, access, retention and accountability for data, so someone is responsible for each important dataset.
What you get
Data practices often outgrow privacy policies and informal controls. C3SA brings privacy into system architecture, collection, access, retention, third-party sharing and incident processes, so obligations are met by how systems work rather than by documents alone.
C3SA's privacy work connects to its data security, cloud, AI and incident response services, so the same controls support privacy, security and breach response.
Commonly Canada's federal private-sector privacy law (PIPEDA), provincial privacy laws, and the EU GDPR. Applicability depends on your sector, location and the people whose data you process; confirm with counsel.
A structured assessment of how a program or system collects, uses and shares personal information, the privacy risks it creates and how to reduce them. Many public bodies are required to complete them, and they are good practice for private organizations.
Knowing what personal data you hold and where makes it possible to assess a breach quickly, which matters for notification obligations. C3SA builds that into incident response procedures.
Data practices have outgrown privacy policies and informal controls.
C3SA brings privacy into system architecture, collection, access, retention, third-party sharing and incident processes.
A data-flow inventory, privacy gap assessment, control roadmap and accountable ownership.
