Privacy & Information Management

Privacy is a hot topic these days, due in part to the advent of social media and the Internet. It is important that brand owners ensure that their advertising and marketing campaigns comply with local privacy laws to avoid embarrassing privacy glitches that can tarnish your brand and result in government sanctions. Similarly, your business must avoid disclosing consumer and other information to unauthourized individuals, otherwise you business may face not only fines from the relevant government, but lawsuits from the person(s) whose information was compromised. Privacy law compliance and information management are key to intelligent IP.

Our lawyers can advise your business on various privacy and information management marketing issues, such as:

  • Canada's anti-spam laws.
  • Privacy policies for contests.
  • Privacy policies for websites.
  • Canada's "do not call" telemarketing legislation.
