In compliance with the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (Canada), ADLER has developed a Confidentiality Agreement that is designed to protect the personal information of students, faculty, and staff. All faculty and staff are required to sign this document. The agreement meets the standards set by federal and provincial legislation following the ten principles of accountability, identifying purposes, consent, limiting collection, limiting use, disclosure and retention, accuracy, safeguards, openness, individual access, and challenging compliance.
Any student, staff, faculty member, or any member of the public may view this document by request to the Privacy Officer. Contact information for students enrolled at ADLER is treated as confidential and is for use solely by the School and its affiliates for educational or informational purposes.
A student’s Social Insurance Number is used only in the preparation of Canada Revenue Agency tax form T2202 for educational expenses.
Audio or visual recordings of courses or school-sponsored events by electronic or other means, and any development, use, distribution, publication, or podcasting (including, but not limited to, RSS feeds, social media, and weblogs) of such material may be used by ADLER ONLY to fulfill course requirements or for community-building and promotion.
A separate agreement will be required for any other use. Sound or visual recording or use of recordings for any other purposes requires the written consent of students and faculty involved or identified. Professional standards of confidentiality take precedence. ADLER sends electronic communications ONLY to present or former students or clients or to those who have expressly “opted in” to receive such communication. Former students, clients, or others who have “opted in” may reverse that permission at any time.
