PIPEDA Hosting Compliance Questions
What is PIPEDA?
PIPEDA (Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act) is Canada's federal privacy law governing how private-sector organizations collect, use, and disclose personal information. Hosting your data in Canada is one component of supporting your PIPEDA obligations.
Why does server location matter for PIPEDA?
When data is stored on US servers, it can be accessed by US authorities under the CLOUD Act and USA PATRIOT Act - without notifying the data owner. Storing data in Canada eliminates this risk.
Which industries require Canadian data residency?
Healthcare (under provincial health privacy laws), legal services, financial services, government contractors, and any organization handling personal data of Canadians may have data residency requirements.
Do you offer a Data Processing Agreement (DPA)?
Yes. We can provide a DPA for organizations that require one as part of their privacy compliance documentation. Contact our support team to request one.
Are your data centres certified?
Our Canadian data centres are SOC 2 certified facilities with physical security, redundant power, and network infrastructure meeting enterprise standards.
Does PIPEDA compliance require anything else beyond Canadian hosting?
Canadian hosting is one component of PIPEDA compliance. Organizations should also have a privacy policy, consent mechanisms, data breach response procedures, and access/correction policies.
