Privacy Policy
Client information is private and confidential. Prive Capital Investment Fund (Prive Capital) recognizes that clients have a right to have their information protected.
Prive Capital’s Privacy Protection Policy governs the collection, use and disclosure of personal client information. Specifically, this policy outlines how Prive Capital complies with provincial and federal regulations governing client information including the Privacy Act and the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Document Act (PIPEDA).
PIPEDA is the Canadian federal privacy legislation established in January 2004. Under PIPEDA no business may collect, use or disclose personal client information without clearly defining the purpose of such collection, use or disclosure and obtaining informed consent. The collection, use or disclosure is limited to purposes that a reasonable person would consider appropriate in the circumstances. The legislation further regulates the protection, retention and destruction of client information. PIPEDA offers clients the right to access their information upon request and challenge the information that is being retained.
The key privacy principles of PIPEDA form the basis of Prive Capital’s comprehensive Privacy Protection Policy.
