Welcome to Data Privacy Week 2026!

Posted on Thursday, January 8th, 2026

Welcome to Data Privacy Week 2026! We welcome the College Community to join the Privacy Office from January 26th to 30th as we share guidance on how to keep personal information accurate and secure. This year’s theme is “Handle With Care: Protecting Data at Every Step”. 

Make sure you also save the date for Wednesday January 28th so you can visit the in-person awareness booth at the Ottawa campus from 12PM to 2:30PM in the Marketplace Food Court. The Privacy Office will be there to answer all of your privacy-related questions, and we’ll also have games, swag, and more!
