Personal Information Banks

Section 57 of the Protection of Privacy Act requires all public bodies to have a directory of Personal Information Banks (PIBs) and make it available to the public. PIBs provide the following mandatory information:
  • a title or name of the information bank
  • the location of the information bank
  • what kind of personal information is contained in the information bank
  • what categories of individuals the information pertains to
  • why the information is collected and how it is used or disclosed
  • the legal authority for the collection of the information
Please note that a PIB entry does not provide direct access to an individual's specific records. It is a high-level summary of how the Division manages data.
 
Individuals have a legal right to request access to their own personal information held by the Division. To make a formal request for your records, please complete and submit a formal Access to Information Request or contact the Peace Wapiti Public School Division Privacy Coordinator directly at 780-532-8133.
