About Baycrest Privacy and Information Principles

Principle 9: Individual Access to Personal Information

Upon request, Baycrest will inform an individual of the existence, use and disclosure of his or her personal information and he or she will be given access to that information. An individual will be able to challenge the accuracy and completeness of the information and have it corrected as appropriate.
The reasons for denying or restricting access will be provided to the individual.

An individual may be required to provide sufficient information to permit Baycrest to provide an account of the existence, use, and disclosure of his or her personal information. The information provided will only be used for this purpose.

Baycrest responds to access requests within the timeframes set by law, and at a reasonable cost. The requested information is made available in a form that is generally understandable. Baycrest may also choose to make health information available through a health care professional.

When an individual successfully demonstrates the inaccuracy or incompleteness of personal information, Baycrest will correct the information as required. Otherwise, the individual may require that a statement of disagreement be attached to the record of personal information.

Upon request of the individual, the corrected information or statement will be transmitted to third parties to whom the information in question has recently been disclosed.
