DATA SHARING

The sharing of data with SGIG citizens through access to information and protection of privacy laws is addressed in Legislation and the Duty of Privacy Protection.

SGIGs will also want to enter data-sharing arrangements with other governments and agencies. This could mean accessing data they hold about your citizens or sharing data you hold in order to achieve strategic goals of your SGIG (e.g. sharing socioeconomic data with a provincial/territorial health agency). In developing this arrangement, we recommend that it is clear regarding what data will be shared, in what forms, and how it can and can’t be used.
