Canada's Privacy Commissioner can investigate complaints, and courts can award damages for serious privacy breaches.

• Obtain meaningful consent before collecting, using, or disclosing personal information
• Limit collection to what is necessary for the identified purpose
• Provide individuals with access to their personal information on request
• Protect personal information with appropriate security safeguards
• Report breaches that pose a real risk of significant harm to the Privacy Commissioner
• Quebec Law 25: privacy impact assessments, data minimization, and new consent rules
