Privacy Commissioner Releases Draft Position Paper on Online Reputation
On January 26, 2018, the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada (the “OPC”) released the Draft OPC Position on Online Reputation (the “Paper”), drafted as part of an OPC consultation on online reputation (the “Consultation”). The Consultation is being conducted more generally as part of the OPC’s work on “Reputation and Privacy”, one of the OPC’s four strategic privacy priorities for 2015-2020. The OPC’s goal is to “seek to create an environment where individuals may use the Internet to explore their interests and develop as persons without fear that their digital trace will lead to unfair treatment.” The validity of this goal was supported by the submissions made to the OPC during the Consultation, many of which highlighted the need for individuals to have some control over their online reputation.
