Supplement to Statistics Canada's Generic Privacy Impact Assessment related to the acquisition of credit information

Date: March 2018

Program manager: Director, Administrative Data Division

Reference to Personal Information Bank

In accordance with the Privacy Act, Statistics Canada is developing a new institutional personal information bank (PIB) to describe the personal credit and financial information Statistics Canada has obtained from public and private sector sources for the purposes of the Statistics Act, including but not limited to the following programs: Financial and Wealth Accounts, Distributed Household Economic Accounts, Canadian Housing, and Income Statistics Programs. Amongst other sources of administrative data, Statistics Canada is obtaining from Trans Union of Canada, Inc. ("TransUnion") fifteen years' worth of current and historical data variables containing personal and credit information that TransUnion has collected in Canada, with the possibility of collection of data in additional years.

Description of statistical activity

Statistics Canada obtains personal information from surveys and various administrative sources under the authority of the Statistics Act. More specifically, under Section 13 of the Statistics Act Statistics Canada can require from third party organizations the disclosure of information that would assist Statistics Canada in fulfilling its mandate or that would aid in the completion or correction of that information. To that end, Statistics Canada will be acquiring personal and credit information from TransUnion. The acquisition of personal credit and financial information from credit and financial institutions, such as TransUnion, will reduce the burden of statistical enquiries on respondents and provide a lower-cost, higher frequency and comprehensive alternative to the more traditional survey-taking approach.

The acquisition of this data necessarily requires the collection and use of personal information. However, Statistics Canada will use the information for statistical purposes only, in support of its mandate, as required by the Statistics Act. Under no circumstances will the personal information obtained from credit and financial institutions be used to produce a credit registry or personal credit scores, to review the credit history of individual Canadians or to perform credit checks on individuals Canadians. The personal identifiers obtained from TransUnion will be used to generate a statistical identifier for linkage purposes, and to correct or complete personal information that Statistics Canada has collected in the ordinary course of its operations, and will then be deleted.

The credit and financial information collected from organizations like TransUnion will be used to create a statistical database in support of various statistical programs in the economic and socio-economic fields, including but not limited to the Canadian Housing program, National Economic Accounts and Income Statistics Divisions. To achieve its statistical objectives, Statistics Canada will integrate these data with other sources of information held by Statistics Canada once approval has been obtained in accordance with the Directive on Microdata Linkage. Statistics Canada will only make anonymized, aggregated statistical information on Canadian households publically available and as such, individuals will not be identifiable in any product disseminated to the public.

Reason for supplement

While the Generic Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) addresses most of the privacy and security risks related to this statistical activity, this supplement describes the additional safeguards being implemented for collection, processing and use of the credit and financial information due to the highly sensitive nature of this data, the breadth and depth of the data set and the possible concerns of Canadians about the intrusiveness of the collection.

The Generic PIA also presents and addresses the privacy principles and levels of potential risk, which apply to the collection and use of the credit and financial information.

Necessity and Proportionality

The collection of personal credit and financial information from TransUnion can be justified against the four-part test proposed by the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada:

Necessity: In order to meet its statutory mandate, Statistics Canada may collect data directly from records created by other organizations for their own business uses. The TransUnion data files would allow Statistics Canada to create more granular and comprehensive statistical aggregates about household credit and the housing market than it is capable of creating with its current data sources.
Effectiveness: The collection and use of the TransUnion data will be effective in meeting Statistics Canada's objectives because it is comprehensive and current. It will reduce administrative burden on the collection of the data from Canadian and will likely result in a higher degree of accuracy in responses than standard Statistics Canada collection through surveys.
Proportionality: Although a significant amount of personal information will be received by Statistics Canada, it will used primarily for linkage purposes and secondarily to enhance missing or outdated information in its Statistical Registers. Once the primary and secondary uses are fulfilled, the personal identifiers will be deleted or destroyed from the files obtained from TransUnion.
Alternatives: Although alternative data is available, it does not provide data at a level of granularity that supports Statistics Canada's mandate. The collection and use of the personal and credit information is being designed in such a way to minimize the collection and use of individualized data.

Mitigation factors

This section defines the specific safeguards put in place for this activity at the various stages of the statistical business process including collection, processing, analysis and dissemination, in addition to the standard security measures, which apply to all confidential information collected by Statistics Canada. While regular procedures are already described in the Generic PIA, they are included here for a comprehensive record.

Collection

The information will be transmitted electronically to Statistics Canada using a secure file transfer protocol.

Consent/Notification

In keeping with the requirements of consumer reporting legislation and in furtherance of transparency, when Statistics Canada acquires administrative data from TransUnion, the individual consumer will see a notation in (also called an inquiry) their credit file. However, that record has no impact on the individual consumer's credit rating.

Limiting Collection

The personal information disclosed in the list of current and historical data variables has been reviewed by Statistics Canada to ensure that it is only requesting the variables required to meet the stated objectives. It will be reviewed periodically to ensure the list remains valid.

Limiting Use, Disclosure and Retention

Statistics Canada will receive personal and credit information from TransUnion and will use that personal information to process and integrate the data with data received from other external and internal data sources and to enhance missing or outdated information. Following integration, Statistics Canada will destroy the personal identifiers on the files received from TransUnion and retain only depersonalized credit attributes. Depersonalized credit attributes will be retained and used while they remain relevant for the stated statistical purposes.

Storage

All Systems with access to any confidential information employs logical access controls at the device and network level. All Systems must have functional and current antivirus software. Network firewall and access rules are in place to prevent access by an employee who does not have work-related need to know. Network firewall rules are also in place such that no system processing any confidential information can be accessed at the network layer by a system outside of the secure area.

Processing

The identifiers and data files will be stored on its own unique, secure servers. The servers that will host that information will be housed in a secure location with access restricted to the designated individuals from the aforementioned programs as per each program's operational requirements provided they provide the necessary justification and obtain the approval from the director of Administrative Data Division. Furthermore, all access permissions are only applicable for a set duration of time and must be regularly renewed including justification and re-approval.

After initial processing, a statistical identifier will be generated by Statistics Canada to facilitate data integration. As per standard practice, following linkages with other sources of information, data will be stripped of identifiers such as name and address, to help to protect confidentiality.

Access

Access to any confidential data held by Statistics Canada is closely monitored. Financial information will be provided in separate files from the personal identifiers, further reducing any risk of breach of identifiable personal information. For information with personal identifiers, only a limited number of employees with work-related need will be allowed access. For example, only 2 Statistics Canada employees from the National Economic Accounts Division will be permitted access to the files containing personal identifiers.

Dissemination

The Statistics Act provides the legal basis for maintaining the confidentiality of personal and business information that Statistics Canada collects. Statistics Canada will not disclose confidential information to any third party, other than with the permission of the original data provider and the authorization from the Chief Statistician, as required by the Statistics Act.

Statistics Canada will publish only anonymized, aggregated statistical information as part of its general dissemination strategy. For example, the outstanding balances of a consolidated set of credit card and other loan types aggregated by province and territory would be made available as part of the estimates contained in the Distributed Household Economic Accounts, which publishes the income, consumption, savings and net worth of households by various groupings such as age, sex, geographical region, and income quintile.

Openness

A summary of the supplemental PIA will be publicly available on the Statistics Canada website as an addendum to the Generic PIA. In addition, when consumers refer to their TransUnion credit report, they will see a 1-800 number to which they can direct their inquiries. That number provides a recorded message to explain the collection and use of the administrative data for statistical, not credit-related, purposes. In the event the consumer requires additional information, the consumer is directed to the pages of the Statistics Canada website that deal with administrative data. In addition, Statistics Canada has prepared FAQs and speaking points to assist its internal staff to deal with inquiries from the public. TransUnion and Statistics Canada will collaborate on additional communication materials, if needed.

Conclusion

This assessment concludes that, with the existing Statistics Canada safeguards and additional safeguards that have been put in place, any remaining risks are such that Statistics Canada is prepared to accept and manage the risk.

Definitions

Legal Name

The legal name is one recognized by law, thus it is the name liable for pursuit or for debts incurred by the business or organization. In the case of a corporation, it is the legal name as fixed by its charter or the statute by which the corporation was created.

Modifications to the legal name should only be done to correct a spelling error or typo.

To indicate a legal name of another legal entity you should instead indicate it in question 3 by selecting 'Not currently operational' and then choosing the applicable reason and providing the legal name of this other entity along with any other requested information.

Operating Name

The operating name is a name the business or organization is commonly known as if different from its legal name. The operating name is synonymous with trade name.

Current main activity of the business or organization

The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) is an industry classification system developed by the statistical agencies of Canada, Mexico and the United States. Created against the background of the North American Free Trade Agreement, it is designed to provide common definitions of the industrial structure of the three countries and a common statistical framework to facilitate the analysis of the three economies. NAICS is based on supply-side or production-oriented principles, to ensure that industrial data, classified to NAICS, are suitable for the analysis of production-related issues such as industrial performance.

The target entity for which NAICS is designed are businesses and other organizations engaged in the production of goods and services. They include farms, incorporated and unincorporated businesses and government business enterprises. They also include government institutions and agencies engaged in the production of marketed and non-marketed services, as well as organizations such as professional associations and unions and charitable or non-profit organizations and the employees of households.

The associated NAICS should reflect those activities conducted by the business or organizational unit(s) targeted by this questionnaire only, and which can be identified by the specified legal and operating name. The main activity is the activity which most defines the targeted business or organization's main purpose or reason for existence. For a business or organization that is for-profit, it is normally the activity that generates the majority of the revenue for the entity.

The NAICS classification contains a limited number of activity classifications; the associated classification might be applicable for this business or organization even if it is not exactly how you would describe this business or organization's main activity.

Please note that any modifications to the main activity through your response to this question might not necessarily be reflected prior to the transmitting of subsequent questionnaires and as a result they may not contain this updated information.

Fall rye and winter wheat seeded in previous year

Fall rye:
Rye that is seeded and germinates in the fall of one year, is dormant over the winter and resumes growth in the spring.

Winter wheat:
Wheat that is seeded and germinates in the fall of one year, is dormant over the winter and resumes growth in the spring. Winter wheat is grown in areas with milder winters.

Seeding in 2018

Barley:

Hemp:
Crop (often called industrial hemp) that can be transformed into textiles, clothing, cosmetics, soap, beer, industrial fibre, building materials and paper. Canada's hemp industry is pioneering the development of hemp-based foods: flour, nutritional bars, pasta, cookies, lactose-free milk and ice cream.

Lentils:
Annual plants similar to peas, which produce pods containing two dark flat seeds.

Mixed grains:
A combination of two or more grains (e.g., oats and barley or peas and oats sown and harvested together), usually harvested for grain. It may also be cut green for hay or silage.

Mustard seed:
An oilseed crop that generates seed-filled pods used mostly for spice and to make the yellow condiment. Three main types are grown on the Prairies: yellow, brown and oriental.

Oats:
A cereal grown primarily for livestock feed. Oats are usually harvested for grain but may also be cut green for hay or silage. Oats are also grown for human consumption (e.g., oatmeal and oat bran).

Soybeans:
A plant primarily grown for their edible, high protein, oil-bearing seeds.

Spring rye:
Rye seeded in the spring and harvested in the fall. This type of rye is grown only in areas which are too cold for fall seeding (e.g., Northern Prairies).

Sugar beets:
Large beets (6" to 12") selected for their high sugar content and used for making white table sugar.

Sunflower seed:
Plants from which the seeds are selected either for their oil content, or for use as birdseed or for confectionery purposes. Includes sunola and other dwarf varieties.

Triticale:
Triticale is a varietal cross between rye and wheat. It is harvested for its grain but often it is cut for hay or silage.

Wheat, spring — Canada Western Red Spring (CWRS) — Hard Red:
CWRS wheat is the largest wheat class in Canada. It is recognized around the world for its excellent milling and baking qualities with minimal protein loss during milling. Due to good gluten strength, it is used extensively either alone or in blends with other wheat varieties for the production of a diverse range of products such as hearth breads, steam breads, noodles, common wheat pasta, and flat breads.

Wheat, spring — Canada Northern Hard Red (CNHR):
Wheat of medium to hard kernels with a very good milling quality and medium gluten strength. The end uses are mostly hearth breads, steamed breads, flat breads, and noodles. Examples of CNHR are AAC Concord, Elgin ND, Faller and Prosper.

Wheat, spring — Canada Prairie Spring Red (CPSR):
This class of wheat is bred for high yields, has medium to strong dough properties and has medium protein content. CPSR is used for hearth breads, steamed breads, flat breads, crackers, noodles and has become recognized as a viable feedstock for ethanol production. Examples of CPSR wheat are: Oslo, Cutler and Enchant.

Wheat, spring — Canada Prairie Spring White (CPSW):
The white sub-class of the CPS has medium to strong dough properties and has low to medium protein content. CPSW can be used for a wide variety of low volume breads, noodles and chapatis. Examples of CPSW wheat are: AC Karma and AC Vista.

Wheat, spring — Canada Western Extra Strong (CWES):
It was previously called Utility. Includes varieties of hard red spring wheat (e.g., Glenlea, Bluesky, and Wildcat). CWES class have milling and baking qualities different from other wheat. Its extra strong gluten content is used in specialty products when high gluten strength is needed, and desirable as blending wheat with softer, weaker wheat.

Wheat, spring — Canada Western Hard White Spring (CWHWS):
Varieties have been developed using the CWRS quality profile with superior milling and dough properties as well as improved flour colour (e.g., AAC Iceberg, AAC Whitefox). Hard white wheat is in demand by millers and bakers due to an improved flavour profile when used in whole grain baked products. It is suitable for bread and noodle production.

Wheat, spring — Canada Western Soft White Spring (CWSWS):
This soft white spring wheat has low protein content and is used for cookies, cakes, pastry, flat breads, noodles, steamed breads, chapatis. Examples of CWSWS classes are: AC Chiffon, AC Indus, AAC Paramount, AC Andrew, AC Meena, AC Nanda, Bhishaj, Sadash.

Wheat, spring — Canada Western Special Purpose (CWSP):
It is Western Canada's newest class of wheat. Generally, varieties in this class are typically high-yielding and are not appropriate for milling because of their high starch and low protein content. Due to the combination of high starch and low protein, they are most suitable for uses such as ethanol product or animal feed.

Wheat, spring — other:
Include all varieties not listed such as unlicensed varieties, Grandin wheat, and milling classes of eastern Canadian spring wheat (e.g., Canada Eastern Hard White Spring (CEHWS), Canada Eastern Red Spring (CERS), Canada Eastern Soft White Spring (CESWS)).

Wheat, winter:
Wheat that is seeded in the fall of one year, germinates and "overwinters", resumes growth in the spring and then is harvested in the mid -summer. Winter Wheat is grown in areas with milder winters.

Genetically modified organisms (GMOs)

Genetically modified organisms – GMOs
Crops developed through genetic engineering, a more precise method of plant breeding. Genetic engineering, also referred to as biotechnology, allows plant breeders to take a desirable trait found in nature and transfer it from one plant or organism to the plant they want to improve, as well as make a change to an existing trait in a plant they are developing. Some examples of desirable traits commonly transferred include resistance to insects and disease and tolerance to herbicides that allow farmers to better control weeds.

Biotechnology
The application of science and engineering in the use of living organisms.

Genetic engineering
A technique involving the transfer of specific genetic information from one organism to another.

Genetically modified seed
A seed whose genetic information has been recently altered by genetic engineering or mutagenesis.

Mutagenesis
A process by which an organism is genetically changed, resulting in a mutation, which is a change in the DNA sequence of a gene. It may occur naturally or it can happen deliberately for the purpose of increasing genetic variation of a species. Commonly used tool for plant breeding, in which researchers force the mutation of a plant's genetics, for example, by exposing seeds to chemicals or irradiation. Crops created with mutagenesis breeding are not considered GMOs and this technique is not considered genetic engineering. In fact, varieties developed using these techniques are considered to be "conventional" varieties and are allowed in organic production systems.

Plant breeding
The science of selecting and altering plants to increase their value by producing desirable traits such as increased quality or yield, virus resistance or increased tolerance to pests.

Terminator gene
A gene that renders seeds sterile.

Transgenic
A plant or animal containing one or more new genes introduced by genetic engineering.

Other terms used for genetically modified seed corn for grain
Liberty Link, Roundup Ready, HTH, Bt Corn (YieldGard, KnockOut, NatureGuard, Xtra, StarLink and Herculex).

Exclude forage crops to be harvested for hay or used for pasture.

Other land areas

Summerfallow:
Land on which no crop will be grown during the year, but which may be cultivated or worked for weed control and/or moisture conservation, or it may simply be left to lay fallow in order to renew the soil.

Chemfallow:
Summerfallow where herbicides are used without working the soil.

Winterkilled land:
Crop areas sown in the previous fall that did not survive the winter conditions, which will not be reseeded or pastured to another crop in the following spring.

Thank you for your participation.

Statistics Canada's Privacy Framework

Statistics Canada's privacy framework is a collection of approved practices, procedures and governance related to privacy. By consolidating all these elements of privacy protection into a single document, the full scope of privacy controls within the operations of Statistics Canada is evident.

This document will reflect any new practices, procedures or governance that are relevant to this privacy framework, as they evolve. As such, the Statistics Canada's Privacy Framework remains evergreen. When updates are required, they will be prepared by the Chief Privacy Officer for Statistics Canada and presented to Security Coordination Committee for approval.

1. Chief Privacy Officer

The Director, Office of Privacy Management and Information Coordination, is the Chief Privacy Officer (CPO) for Statistics Canada, as designated by the Chief Statistician. The CPO provides leadership on matters related to privacy, develops business strategies and processes that ensure that privacy is considered and accounted for in business decision, and ensures the safeguarding of the information by doing privacy program reviews.

The CPO draws expertise from their role as the Office of Privacy Management and Information Coordination (OPMIC) Director, and is supported by the Chief Security Officer (CSO), as well as the Chief Information Officer (CIO), as matters related to physical and IT security, and information management are crucial elements to support privacy protection in an organization.

The CPO administers the departmental privacy program, which is responsible for:

Developing and implementing policies and procedures to support the protection of personal information in the organization
Providing advice to employees and management on privacy related matters
Investigating and reporting breaches of personal information
Undertaking program reviews to ensure compliance to privacy
Providing training to all employees on privacy

2. Privacy governance

Statistics Canada is subject to the Privacy Act which means that it must ensure compliance to the privacy principles embedded in the Act, including the protection of personal information. As Statistics Canada's main legislation, the Statistics Act also provides for the protection of the information collected under its mandate, the interpretation of the two legislations for the protection of information can work together. The Privacy Act prohibits the disclosure of personal information without the consent of the individual unless specifically permitted by the Privacy Act. However, the information may be subject to other legislation that would prohibit its disclosure. This other legislation that would prohibit the disclosure is the Statistics Act which explicitly states that information that could identify an individual cannot be disclosed. There is an exception in the Statistics Act that disclosure may be permitted with the consent of the individual (and at the discretion of the Chief Statistician) which aligns with the Privacy Act's principle of disclosure with consent.

Statistics Canada is not subject to the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA). However, PIPEDA can impact the operations of Statistics Canada as data providers are subject to it which can limit their authority to disclose personal information to Statistics Canada.

3. Policies and procedures

Policies and procedures are crucial for a consistent interpretation of the privacy obligations. Having a formal policy or procedure in the organization ensures that all employees, including management have a common understanding of the organization's objective and application of privacy principles. As not all employees can be experts in the interpretation of the Privacy Act or its supporting policies, this element is supported by experts in the Office of Privacy Management and Information Coordination that are available to provide advice.

Treasury Board Secretariat of Canada (TBS) is responsible for providing guidance on the interpretation of the Privacy Act as well as issuing policies to support compliance. Statistics Canada is subject to these policies.

Statistics Canada also has a list of policy instruments (listed below) that incorporate the privacy principles within its statistical programs. The generic Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) offers a clear correlation of them.

In regards to employee privacy, TBS provides the policies to support compliance to privacy principles and Statistics Canada has developed best practices and procedures to reinforce the policies.

5. Experts

Statistics Canada also has experts to support the programs and employees with the interpretation of legislation, policies and directives.

The Security Coordination Committee, which is comprised of senior managers from across the agency, plays an important role in supporting privacy within the organization. It assists and advises in the development of appropriate policies, procedures and programs, including training and awareness programs.

The Office of Privacy Management and Information Coordination (OPMIC) is mainly responsible for providing advice on the application of the legislation, policies and directives related to privacy. It ensures proper safeguards are in place to mitigate or eliminate any risks of improper use or disclosure of information as well as measures to ensure the integrity and availability of the information.

OPMIC provides Statistics Canada employees with sound direction on the protection of information in their daily activities. Through awareness campaigns, the IM Portal on the ICN, and its questions mailboxes, OPMIC is an information source and reminder of the importance of compliance with agency directives.

The Integrated Security Awareness Working group, which is comprised of IT, IM, and physical security experts, ensures that activities related to the security of personal information communicate a consistent and clear message to all employees.

6. Addressing specific privacy elements

The following are specific privacy elements related to the statistical operations of Statistics Canada. The elements were integrated in the statistical processes and support a robust and transparent privacy framework.

a. Consent

For personal information collected under the authority of the Statistics Act, the element of consent is found in many of the processes at Statistics Canada. The Agency has developed practices for when to seek consent from an individual or not in consideration that the information is solely used for statistical purposes.

Processes, type of consent, and reason
Processes	Type of Consent	Reason
Collection	Direct collection: consent to participate is implied when the individual provides their information. Individuals are informed if the collection is voluntary or mandatory.	Direct collection: Individuals have an opportunity to refuse to participate in voluntary surveys by simply not providing the information.
Collection	Indirect collection: It is implied that consent was provided or authority to disclose to Statistics Canada exists.	Indirect collection: the data providers have the responsibility to ensure they have the authority to provide the information to Statistics Canada.
Sharing and disclosing	Respondents to surveys are asked, at the time of collection, for the expressed consent to share their information, informed of the exact recipient and the statistical use of the information.	The Statistics Act allows the sharing of information with the consent of the respondent and an agreement between Statistics Canada and the receiving organization must be in place. The sharing is only allowed for statistical purposes unless the receiving organizations has a legislation that would compel the individual to provide their information.
	Respondents to surveys are asked, at the time of collection or after, for their expressed consent to disclose their information. They are informed of the exact recipient and the statistical use of the information.	The Statistics Act allows the disclosure of information with the consent of the respondent and authorization from the Chief Statistician. When personal information is disclosed, Statistics Canada requires the recipient to sign a confidentiality agreement or undertaking, by which they agree to keep the information confidential and use it for statistical purposes only.
	Tax data: Respondents to surveys are asked for their expressed consent to disclose their tax information to another party.	Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) allows Statistics Canada to disclose the tax information of a respondent if the expressed and clear consent (specific question by CRA) is received from the respondent. The Chief Statistician may use his discretion to disclose the information.
	Children: Respondents to surveys, 14 and under, are not asked for their consent to share their information. The consent is requested from the parent/guardian.	Statistics Canada also uses the principle of reasonable expectation that the minor understands the purpose and consequences of their consent to disclose or share their information.
	Proxy: An individual can consent to share the information on behalf of the selected respondent. The individual is asked to confirm that they have consulted with the respondent.	This type of consent is rarely used. The Census of Population used this type of consent for the disclosure of Census information to LAC, 92 years after the collection.
Use	Data matching: Respondents are always informed that their information may be linked to other information.	Data matching or linking is a statistical technique and is considered a consistent use of the information.

b. Access, correction and complaint

The Chief Privacy Officer is also the Privacy Coordinator for Statistics Canada, who is responsible for providing access to one's own personal information. The access can only be denied in limited cases, in accordance with the Privacy Act.

The Privacy Coordinator ensures that personal information is described in personal information banks as required by the Privacy Act, which are published in "Information about Programs and Information Holdings" (formally known as Info Source). If a request for a correction to personal information is submitted to its office, the Privacy Coordinator will request the correction in the case of non-statistical programs. In the case of statistical programs, the information does not require to be corrected as it is not used for administrative purposes and such correction is not always operationally feasible.

The Chief Privacy Officer is responsible for addressing concerns or complaints from employees or the public about the management of their personal information. In some instances, the CPO will undertake an investigation of internal processes to determine if there is a breach of privacy and to ensure compliance to the Privacy Act. Incident reports are prepared, and the Chief Security Officer approves the breach report and the recommendations, based on recommendations of the CPO. If it is a material breach, Treasury Board Secretariat and the Office of the Privacy Commissioner are notified as well as the individual whose information was breached, in accordance with the Information and Privacy Breach Protocol. If the complainant is not satisfied with the results of the investigation, they may submit a complaint to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner. In the event of a non-material breach, the individual may be notified if the CPO and CSO deem it necessary. If the individual is notified, Treasury Board Secretariat and the Office of the Privacy Commissioner will also be notified as to inform them in the event of a complaint.

In regards to personal information collected under the Statistics Act, access to personal information is limited to employees that have a need to know. The Directive on the Security of Sensitive Statistical Information assigns the responsibility to directors of statistical programs to ensure the appropriate use, access and disclosure of the information. Statistics Canada has developed corporate systems to support the access control to the information.

Access to the information may also be allowed to researchers under the Directive on the Use of Deemed Employees who provide statistical services to Statistics Canada. These researchers must take the oath of confidentiality as per the Statistics Act and are subject to the same penalties as all Statistics Canada employees. The access to the information is limited to that required for their work, they must have a reliability security clearance, confirm that they do not have conflict of interest, and in some cases submit a project proposal. The information remains in the control of Statistics Canada at all times.

c. Security

To ensure the confidentiality, integrity and availability of personal information under the control of Statistics Canada, many physical, IT and Information Management measures have been put in place to mitigate the risks to personal information.

The security of information is the responsibility of the Chief Security Officer, the Chief Privacy Officer and the Chief Information Officer. Any security issues that cannot be addressed by them are brought to the Security Coordination Committee to make an evaluation of the risk and determine if the issue should be brought up to the Chief Statistician.

The measures are made available to employees in the Security Practices Manual as well as in the directives on the transmission of protected information, management of statistical microdata files, and network use policy.

The following are examples of security measures to protect personal information:

Access control gates and security guards
Security screening of all employees
Network Use Policy
Building pass for employees and visitors
Encryption of emails containing protected information (including personal information)
Prohibition to use USB keys unless expressly authorized
Storage of protected information on a closed network
Access control to electronic files
Password requirements for access to networks

Statistics Canada's Integrated Security Awareness Group is responsible for coordinating all security related activities that take place in the agency. This group ensures that activities are corporate-wide and responsive to the security needs for Statistics Canada. Also part of its terms of reference is the yearly participation in the Government of Canada Security Awareness Week. During this week, many activities take place to remind employees of their obligations to protect the information held by Statistics Canada.

d. Privacy impact assessments

In support of the Privacy Act, a Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) is an evaluation process which allows those involved in the collection, use or disclosure of personal information to assess and evaluate privacy, confidentiality and security risks associated with these activities, and to develop measures intended to mitigate or eliminate identified risks.

Statistics Canada developed the Directive on Conducting Privacy Impact Assessments with the expected result that a PIA will be conducted when any new or significantly redesigned collection, use or disclosure of personal information raises privacy, confidentiality or data security risks. As Statistics Canada undertakes multiple collections of personal information, follows a pre-determined process and uses similar tools, it developed a generic PIA that addresses the standard statistical activities that involve personal information. Any new processes would be addressed in a specific PIA, or a supplement or update to the generic PIA.

Although Statistics Canada is not required to conduct a PIA as the information is used for non-administrative purposes, it was determined that a PIA would demonstrate due diligence and good stewardship of personal information and identify potential risks.

In the context of data acquisition, the existence of a corporate PIA has facilitated the negotiation to satisfy the data provider that privacy risks have been identified and addressed. Supplements to the generic PIA are also developed for most administrative data acquisitions that involve personal information.

PIAs are reviewed by the statistical programs, the Chief Privacy Officer as well as other specialists, as required, and must be submitted to the Chief Statistician for approval. The collection, use or disclosure cannot take place until the PIA is approved by the Chief Statistician. The approved PIA is submitted to TBS and the Office of the Privacy Commissioner who may provide recommendations.

e. Incident management

Statistics Canada developed an information and privacy breach protocol describing the procedures to be followed for breaches of information and privacy at Statistics Canada.

The protocol defines when a privacy breach occurs as well as the steps to take to address the breach. It takes into account the following 4 steps to address a breach:

Breach containment
Evaluation of risks associated with the breach
Notification and reporting
Prevention of future breaches

Statistics Canada developed an incident reporting system and form to collect consistent and complete information about breaches. The incident is immediately reported to the CPO and CSO, with a report submitted shortly thereafter, by the responsible manager, to a breach notification mailbox and is quickly reviewed and evaluated by the CPO. The form covers the type of data breached, a chronology of the events, the risk assessment, the problem resolution, recommendations and action items.

These incident reports are reviewed by the CPO and the CSO and then submitted to the director of the division to implement the recommendations to prevent future breaches. On a quarterly basis, breaches are reported to the Security Coordination Committee to identify and address systemic breaches.

f. Oath

The protection of personal information is the focus of the oath that employees and deemed employees must take when accessing confidential information at Statistics Canada. In addition, public service employees must take the oath of public service that they will faithfully and honestly fulfil their duties and will not, without authority, disclose or make known any matter that comes to them by reason of this employment. They must also adhere to a code of conduct which includes the respect of legislation and policies.

The Statistics Act imposes an obligation of confidentiality on employees working for Statistics Canada and who have access to information collected under the authority of the Statistics Act. They are obligated to take an oath of secrecy which means that they attest that they will respect the confidentiality of the information. The oath is administered by an individual with delegated authority and with sufficient knowledge to explain the importance of the confidentiality promise. The Act imposes penalties to those that contravene the oath and is valid for a lifetime. Should the employee breach the information, they could be subject to a fine or imprisonment as per the provision of the legislation.

g. Agreements

Information Sharing Agreements

Statistics Canada undertakes information sharing with organizations, governments or business where the Statistics Act permits the sharing of information. Such sharing requires the consent of the individual to share their personal information and an agreement stating the terms and conditions for the sharing. The adoption by Statistics Canada of an information sharing standard has ensured a consistent level of protection of personal information. All information sharing agreements contain the following clauses to ensure a comprehensive and standardized approach to protect the information.

Scope of the information
Confidentiality of the information
Use of the information
Access to the information
Notification of breach
Audits
Termination

The exception to the requirement to have a respondent's consent is when there is an information sharing agreement with a provincial or territorial statistical agency that has legal authority to compel the collection of that same information, has a legislation that requires to maintain the confidentiality of the information and has penalties for wrongful disclosure or another department with a legislation with the power to compel response.

Information Acquisition

Statistics Canada also has the authority to collect personal information from other organizations, business or governments. As such, it has created standardized agreements when acquiring such data. As the data is provided to Statistics Canada by another organization, Statistics Canada cannot impose the use of its standardized agreement, and the data provider may request to use its own agreement. In all instances of data acquisition, Statistics Canada must have a written exchange to document the acquisition and demonstrate its authority to collect. All acquisition agreements contain the following clauses to ensure a comprehensive and standardized approach.

Scope of the information
Transmission of the information
Confidentiality and protection of the information
Use of the information
Disclosure of the information
Notification of breach
Monitoring and compliance
Termination

h. Audit/Review

Statistics Canada's Internal Audit Division is responsible for conducting audits and reviews that may include compliance with the Privacy Act. It has completed audits on the information sharing agreements with external stakeholders. The report, including a summary of the action plan, is available to the public.
The elements in this privacy framework are reviewed, on a need basis, to ensure its robustness.

7. Education and awareness

Statistics Canada undertakes a variety of activities to ensure that employees are aware and understand their responsibilities and obligations when collecting, using or disclosing personal information. These activities are reviewed regularly to ensure that the information remains up-to-date, interesting and relevant to employees.

Here is a list of activities that Statistics Canada undertakes regularly, the objective of the activity, the scope of the activity as well as the privacy principles that it will address.

Activities that Statistics Canada undertakes regularly, the objective of the activity, the scope of the activity as well as the privacy principles that it will address

The information collected under the Statistics Act and personal information protected under the Privacy Act is protected from wrongful use or disclosure.

Statistics Canada's Privacy Framework: Preface

Statistics Canada's Privacy Framework (SCPF) is founded on the requirements of the Statistics Act and the Privacy Act. From these general legal requirements, a number of operational policies, directives and protocols are derived. These are predicated on specific organizational privacy issues, such as the role of consent, and pertain to particular aspects of Statistics Canada's operations.

Statistics Canada has as its mandate "to collect, compile, analyse, abstract and publish statistical information relating to commercial, industrial, financial, social, economic and general activities and condition of the people."^{Footnote 1} As a result of this unique mandate, Statistics Canada acquires large amounts of data that require additional vigilance in safeguarding the privacy and security of a person's or an organisation's confidential information. Statistics Canada has implemented policies and practices that enable Statistics Canada to keep Canadian's information confidential (unless conditions are met to disclose the information) and uphold the reputation of Statistics Canada.

In order to uphold Statistics Canada's obligation to maintain respondent confidentiality under subsection 17(1) of the Statistics Act and Statistics Canada's reputation for maintaining that confidentiality, the organisational framework for privacy is critical to ensure that every aspect of the organisation is protected under its umbrella. Statistics Canada's organisational responsibilities for privacy and security lie with the Departmental Privacy Officer (DPO) who is also the Privacy Coordinator at Statistics Canada and the Departmental Security Officer (DSO). The DPO is responsible for providing leadership on matters related to privacy to the various divisions within Statistics Canada to ensure that privacy is considered for all business decisions. The DSO is responsible for the development and administration of the security program at Statistics Canada and is the chair of the Security Coordination Committee at Statistics Canada.

Under the privacy and security umbrella, several operational areas have policies and protocols specific for their programs' needs. For example, Information Technology (IT) has implemented a Network Use Policy, an IT Security Policy, a Password Directive, and a practice regarding the use of USB keys to ensure continued privacy and security in the IT sphere in an increasingly digital world.

At the core of the requirements to maintain confidentiality within the Statistic Act, is the Oath of secrecy which all employees are required to take upon employment. The Oath of secrecy requires all employees to respect the confidentiality of all information received from respondents.^{Footnote 2} In addition to the Oath of secrecy, the organisation has implemented a policy that limits access to personal information to only those employees who have a need to know.

To ensure that all employees are aware of the comprehensive nature of the privacy and security practices and protocols, Statistics Canada engages in education and training programs for all employees. All new employees are required to participate in mandatory training on confidentiality and privacy. As well, Statistics Canada is an active participant in the Government of Canada's Security of Awareness Week.

None of the privacy and security initiatives at Statistics Canada are the responsibility of a single person or division. There is overlap among all privacy and security policies, directives and practices. The various operational areas consider privacy and security elements from different angles which forms an umbrella of privacy and security which is both comprehensive and sensitive to specific risks. In this way, privacy and security are not just top-down mandates at Statistics Canada: they are organization wide, operating unit specific and employee invested imperatives.

Reporting instructions

When answering the questions, please include as of the reference day:

All livestock (cattle or calves, pigs, and/or sheep or lambs) on your operation regardless of ownership, including livestock custom fed, fed under contract for others, and livestock pastured.
All livestock owned by the operator and held on Crown land, community pastures, and grazing projects.
Please do not report livestock (cattle or calves, pigs, and/or sheep or lambs) which are owned by you but kept on a farm, ranch or feedlot operated by someone else.

Definitions

Legal Name
The legal name is one recognized by law, thus it is the name liable for pursuit or for debts incurred by the business or organization. In the case of a corporation, it is the legal name as fixed by its charter or the statute by which the corporation was created.

Modifications to the legal name should only be done to correct a spelling error or typo.

Operating Name
The operating name is a name the business or organization is commonly known as if different from its legal name. The operating name is synonymous with trade name.

Current main activity of the business or organization
The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) is an industry classification system developed by the statistical agencies of Canada, Mexico and the United States. Created against the background of the North American Free Trade Agreement, it is designed to provide common definitions of the industrial structure of the three countries and a common statistical framework to facilitate the analysis of the three economies. NAICS is based on supply-side or production-oriented principles, to ensure that industrial data, classified to NAICS, are suitable for the analysis of production-related issues such as industrial performance.

Livestock: inclusions and exclusions

Include all livestock on your operation as of the reference day, regardless of ownership, including livestock pastured, custom fed or fed under contract for others.

Include all livestock owned by the operator and held on Crown land, community pastures and grazing projects.

Exclude livestock which are owned by you but kept on a farm, ranch, or feedlot operated by someone else.

Community pastures, grazing associations, Crown land: a community pasture or grazing reserve can be a federal, provincial or municipal land operated by a manager and rented to livestock producers for pasturing animals at a fixed fee per head. A co-operative grazing association is a group of people who usually incorporate and rent or lease land for a common grazing area.

Note: forest reserves fall under the category of grazing reserve. Crown land is land owned by the government (municipal, provincial or federal) and generally managed by the government. Crown land does not necessarily have to be used for the purpose of grazing livestock, although grazing does take place on Crown land, particularly in British Columbia.

Fed under contract / custom feeding: livestock are fed under a pre-arranged agreement with a company (for example feed mill) or another producer to feed the cattle or hogs to market weight. Usually the "feed" operator owns the buildings and supplies the labour but does not own the livestock.

Feedlot (cattle): feedlots are operations where livestock are fattened for market. A feedlot operation may own the animals, or may feed them for other operators for a fee, or both.
Note: feedlots are more applicable to cattle.

Feeding and finishing operations (pigs): feeding and finishing operations are applicable to pigs. Hog feeding and finishing operations are operations in which hogs are fed to market weight. Usually there are no breeding sows or boars in these operations other than those culled from a breeding herd, being fattened for slaughter.

Slaughtered for own consumption: if there are any livestock (cattle, hogs, or sheep) which will be slaughtered for personal consumption, include that livestock in inventory counts. For example if a dairy operator has one pig which will be slaughtered for personal consumption, include this pig in inventory counts.

Cattle and calves

Bulls: male cattle which have not been castrated, 1 year and over, which are or will be kept for breeding purposes or for slaughter.

Calves: cattle of either sex, under 1 year old.

Calving: a term used when referring to cattle, meaning to give birth.

Cow: female cattle which have calved at least once, being used for the production of dairy or for the reproduction of beef calves. Include "first calf heifers".

Heifers: female cattle over 1 year old which have never calved, used (or to be used) for breeding or fed for slaughter.

Steers: castrated male cattle, 1 year and over, being fed for slaughter.

Pigs

Boars: non-castrated male pigs, 6 months and older, used or to be used (or sold) for breeding purposes.

Bred gilts: female pigs which have never farrowed but which have been bred; they are intended for breeding purposes.

Farrowing: term used when referring to pigs, meaning "to give birth".

Feeders: market pigs that are 50 to 119 lb (23 to 53 kg) or 120 to 179 lb (54 to 81 kg).
Note: sometimes referred to as grower pigs.

Finishers: market pigs over 179 lb (81 kg) which are being fed for slaughter.

Gilts: female pigs which have never farrowed and are intended for breeding. Gilts intended for breeding may or may not be bred.
Note: gilts are younger than bred gilts.

Hog: a general term used to describe any type of pig.

Market pigs: consists of 'feeders (growers)' and 'finishers' which are over 50 lb (23 kg). The general term 'market pigs' is to differentiate from pigs for breeding.

Piglet: a general term used to describe a new born pig.

Slaughter hogs: pigs which are approximately 220 to 240 lb (100 to 110 kg) and are ready to be sold or slaughtered.

Sows: female pigs which have farrowed at least once.

Stillborn: born dead.

Suckling pigs: young pigs under 15 lb (7 kg), which have not been weaned.

Weaners, Weanling, Nursery or Starter: pigs of either sex, 15 to 49 lb (7 to 22 kg), which have recently been weaned.

Weaning: switching a young animal from mother's milk to another source of food.

Pigs - Farrowings

Total number of farrowings: this question is asking to report the total number of farrowings in the last 6 months. If a sow farrowed two times in the last 6 months this would be reported as two farrowings.

Average number of piglets born per litter: this question is asking to report the average number of piglets born per litter during the last 6 months. Some respondents interpret this to mean how many total piglets were born during the last six months. The data we are looking for is the average number of piglets born per sow. For example: If a respondent has 100 sows and each sow has 10 piglets born per litter. The correct response would be on average 10 piglets born per litter. Include piglets born alive and stillborn.

Total piglets born: this question is asking to report the total number of piglets born in the last 6 months. Total number of farrowings in the last 6 months multiplied by average number of piglets born per litter equals the total piglets born in the last 6 months. If the respondent is not able to report the total number of farrowings or average number of piglets born, the respondent should report the total number of piglets born in the last 6 months. Include piglets born alive and stillborn.

Sheep and lambs

Rams: non-castrated male sheep kept for breeding.

Ewes: female sheep kept for breeding.

Replacement lambs: replacement lambs are lambs that are being kept for breeding purposes. Include lambs born on the operation and lambs purchased from other sources. Also include lambs born and still located on the operation that will eventually be sold to other farms for breeding purposes.

Market lambs: market lambs are male or female lambs that are raised with the intent for slaughter.
