Purpose and accountability
Canadian AI Organization seeks to handle personal information transparently, proportionately, and securely. Where Canadian privacy requirements apply, we aim to collect, use, disclose, retain, and safeguard information consistently with those requirements and the context of the activity.
Information we may collect
Depending on your interaction with us, information may include professional contact details, organization and role, inquiry or program information, research-collaboration correspondence, subscription preferences, and limited website or device information generated through normal site operation.
How information is used
Information may be used to respond to inquiries, administer research and events, maintain institutional relationships, operate and secure digital services, improve accessibility and performance, maintain appropriate records, and meet legal or operational obligations.
Service providers and cross-border processing
Hosting, email, forms, analytics, security, event, and collaboration providers may process information for authorized purposes. Some providers may process information outside Canada, where it may be subject to the laws of another jurisdiction.
Retention and safeguards
We seek to retain personal information only as long as reasonably necessary for identified purposes and to use administrative, technical, and physical safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity and context of the information.
Your choices and requests
Subject to applicable law and permitted exceptions, you may ask questions about our privacy practices, request access to information we hold about you, or ask that inaccurate information be corrected. Optional electronic communications may be unsubscribed from using the mechanism provided.
Research and public information
Public-interest research may use additional notices, agreements, consent processes, ethical review practices, or de-identification measures appropriate to the project. Information intentionally made public may be referenced where relevant to legitimate research, attribution, or institutional purposes.
