Privacy Impact Assessment
A thorough evaluation of your data processing activities against applicable legal requirements and best practices. We map information flows, identify compliance gaps, and provide prioritized recommendations for remediation.
Assessments typically include stakeholder interviews, documentation review, technical analysis, and a detailed report with findings and action items. Suitable for organizations implementing new systems, entering new markets, or seeking baseline understanding of their privacy posture.
Compliance Framework Development
Custom policies, procedures, and governance structures that meet the requirements of PIPEDA, provincial privacy laws, and international regulations such as GDPR. We create documentation that reflects how your organization actually operates.
Deliverables typically include privacy policies, data handling procedures, consent mechanisms, retention schedules, and governance frameworks. We work with your legal, IT, and business teams to ensure alignment and practicality.
Staff Training Programs
Building privacy awareness across your organization through engaging, role-appropriate training. We offer both in-person workshops and digital learning modules that can be deployed organization-wide.
Training content is customized to reflect your policies, systems, and industry context. Programs address general privacy principles for all staff and deeper dives for teams with specific data handling responsibilities. Includes assessment components to measure comprehension.
Incident Response Planning
Preparation is essential for effective breach response. We help you develop and test procedures for detecting, containing, and recovering from data security incidents while meeting notification obligations.
Deliverables include incident response plans, escalation procedures, notification templates, and communication protocols. We conduct tabletop exercises to test preparedness and identify gaps before real incidents occur.
Data Mapping and Inventory
Understanding what personal data you hold, where it resides, and how it moves through your organization forms the foundation of any protection strategy. We create comprehensive data inventories that support compliance and risk management.
The process involves systematic discovery across systems and processes, classification of data types, documentation of processing purposes, and identification of data sharing relationships. Results inform retention decisions and access controls.
Ongoing Advisory Services
Retained access to privacy expertise for organizations that need regular guidance but not a full-time resource. Includes scheduled consultations, ad-hoc support for emerging questions, and monitoring of regulatory developments relevant to your sector.
Advisory relationships provide continuity and context that project-based engagements cannot match. Your dedicated consultant becomes familiar with your organization and can provide advice that accounts for your specific circumstances.
