What is considered Personal data?

Personal data means any information whether factual or subjective, recorded or not that relates to an identified or identifiable individual. For example, Personal Data may include information in any form pertaining to age, name, ID numbers (SIN), residential address, location data, an Internet Protocol (IP) address, a cookie ID, the advertising identifier of your phone. This means that if different elements of information, collected together, can be used to identify particular person, then such elements of information constitute Personal data. Personal data that had been de-identified or stripped from strict identifiers, encrypted or pseudonymized but can still be used to re-identify an individual also constitutes Personal data.

​

Personal data that has purposefully been rendered anonymous to the extent that an individual cannot or no longer be identifiable is not considered Personal data. What is not consideredPersonal data may therefore include: anonymized data; business contact information; a business registration number; a business email address; public telephone directory information; professional and business directories available to the public.
