About Baycrest Privacy and Information Principles

Principle 7: Safeguards for Personal Information

Baycrest has implemented security safeguards for the personal information it holds, including:

• Physical measures (such as locked filing cabinets and restricted access to offices where personal information is held);
• Organizational measures (such as permitting access on a "need-to-know" basis only), and
• Technological measures (such as the use of passwords, encryption, and audits).

Baycrest has taken steps to ensure that the personal information in its custody and control is protected against theft, loss and unauthorized use or disclosure, and from unauthorized copying, modification, and disposal.

Baycrest makes its employees, appointed medical staff, researchers, clinical and research fellows, scientists, students and volunteers aware of the importance of maintaining the confidentiality of personal information, and has incorporated privacy into its orientation and core curriculum training.
