Policy, Scope and Objectives

1.1. General
1.2. Scope
1.3. Objectives of the PIMS
1.4. Commitments

The Board of Directors and management of AMJ Campbell International Canada (AMJ) are committed to compliance with all relevant CANADIAN and EU laws in respect of personal data, and to protecting the “rights and freedoms” of individuals whose information AMJ Campbell International Canada collects in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). To that end, AMJ has developed, implemented, maintains and continuously improves a documented personal information management system (‘PIMS’). The scope of the PIMS includes the whole of AMJ.

AMJ’s objectives for the PIMS are that it should enable AMJ to meet its own requirements for the management of personal information; that it should support organizational objectives and obligations; that it should impose controls in line with AMJ’s acceptable level of risk; that it should ensure that AMJ meets applicable statutory, regulatory, contractual and/or professional duties; and that it should protect the interests of individuals and other key stakeholders.

AMJ is committed to complying with data protection legislation and good practice including:

Processing personal information only where this is strictly necessary for legitimate organizational purposes

Collecting only the minimum personal information required for these purposes and not processing excessive personal information

Providing clear information to individuals about how their personal information will be used and by whom

Only processing relevant and adequate personal information

Processing information fairly and lawfully

Maintaining an inventory of the categories of personal information processed by AMJ

Keeping personal information accurate and where necessary, up to date

Retaining personal information only for as long as is necessary for legal or regulatory reasons or for legitimate organizational purposes

Respecting individuals’ rights in relation to their personal information, including their right of subject access

Keeping all personal information secure

Only transferring personal information outside the EU in circumstances where it can be adequately protected

The application of the various exemptions allowable by data protection legislation

Developing and implementing a PIMS to enable the policy to be implemented

Where appropriate, identifying internal and external stakeholders and the degree to which these stakeholders are involved in governance of AMJ’s PIMS

The identification of workers with specific responsibility and accountability for the PIMS 1.5. AMJ has notified the Information Commissioner that it is a data controller and that it processes certain information about data subjects. AMJ has identified all the personal data that it processes and this is contained in the Data Inventory Register.

1.6. A copy of the ICO notification details is retained by Data Protection Officer.

1.7. The ICO Notification is renewed annually.

1.8. The Data Protection Officer is responsible, each year, for reviewing the details of notification, in the light of any changes to AMJ’s activities (as determined by changes to the Data Inventory Register and the management review) and to any additional requirements identified by means of data protection impact assessments.

1.9. The policy applies to all AMJ employees and interested parties of AMJ such as outsourced suppliers. Any breach of the GDPR or the PIMS will be dealt with under the company’s disciplinary policy and may also be a criminal offence, in which case the matter will be reported as soon as possible to the appropriate authorities.

1.10. Partners and any third parties working with or for AMJ, and who have or may have access to personal information, will be expected to have read, understood and to comply with this policy. No third party may access personal data held by AMJ without having first entered into a data confidentiality agreement which imposes on the third party obligations no less onerous than those to which AMJ is committed, and which gives AMJ the right to audit compliance with the agreement.

  1. Background to the GDPR 2.1 The General Data Protection Regulation 2016 replaces the EU Data Protection Directive of 1995 and supersedes the laws of individual Member States that were developed in compliance with the Data Protection Directive 95/46/EC. Its purpose is to protect the “rights and freedoms” of living individuals, and to ensure that personal data is not processed without their knowledge, and, wherever possible, that it is processed with their consent.
  2. Definitions Used by AMJ (drawn from the GDPR)

Territorial Scope – the GDPR will apply to all data controllers that are established in the EU who process the personal data of data subjects, in the context of that establishment. It will also apply to controllers outside of the EU that process personal data in order to offer goods and services, or monitor the behaviour to data subjects who are resident in the EU.

Establishment- the main establishment of the data controller in the EU will be the place in which the controller makes the main decisions as to the purpose of its data processing activities. The main establishment of a processor in the EU will be its administrative center. If a controller is based outside the EU, it will have to appoint a representative in the jurisdiction in which the controller operates, to act on behalf of the controller and deal with supervisory authorities.

Personal Data – any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (‘data subject’); an identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person.

Special Categories of Personal Data – personal data revealing racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, or trade-union membership, and the processing of genetic data, biometric data for the purpose of uniquely identifying a natural person, data concerning health or data concerning a natural person’s sex life or sexual orientation.

Data Controller – the natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data.

Data Subject – any living individual who is the subject of personal data held by an organisation.

Processing – any operation or set of operations which is performed on personal data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organisation, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction.

Profiling – – is any form of automated processing of personal data intended to evaluate certain personal aspects relating to a natural person, or to analyses, or predict that person’s performance at work, economic situation, location, health, personal preferences, reliability, or behavior. This definition is linked to the right of the data subject to object to profiling and a right to be informed about the existence of profiling, of measures based on profiling and the envisaged effects of profiling on the individual.

Personal Data Breach – a breach of security leading to the accidental, or unlawful, destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure of, or access to, personal data transmitted, stored or otherwise processed. There is an obligation on the data controller to report personal data breaches to the supervisory authority and where the breach is likely to adversely affect the personal data or privacy of the data subject.

Data Subject Consent – means any freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous indication of the data subject’s wishes by which he or she, by a statement or by a clear affirmative action, signifies agreement to the processing of personal data.

Child – the GDPR defines a child as anyone under the age of 16 years old. The processing of personal data of a child under 13 years of age is only lawful if parental or custodian consent has been obtained. AMJ Privacy Policy 21/05/2018 Page 3 of 8

3 Third Party – a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or body other than the data subject, controller, processor and persons who, under the direct authority of the controller or processor, are authorized to process personal data.

Filing System – any structured set of personal data which are accessible according to specific criteria, whether centralized, decentralized or dispersed on a functional or geographical basis.

  1. Risk Assessment

Objective: To ensure that AMJ is aware of any risks associated with the processing of particular types of personal information.

AMJ has a process for assessing the level of risk to individuals associated with the processing of their personal information. Assessments will also be carried out in relation to processing undertaken by other organizations on behalf of AMJ. AMJ shall manage any risks which are identified by the risk assessment in order to reduce the likelihood of a non-conformance with this policy.

Where a type of processing, in particular using new technologies, is likely to result in a high risk to the “rights and freedoms” of natural persons (taking into account the nature, scope, context and purposes of the processing) AMJ shall, prior to the processing, carry out an assessment (a Data Protection Impact Assessment) of the impact of the envisaged processing operations on the protection of personal data. A single assessment may address a set of similar processing operations that present similar high risks. Where, as a result of a Data Protection Impact Assessment, it is clear that AMJ is about to commence processing of personal information that could cause damage and/or distress to the data subjects, the decision as to whether or not AMJ may proceed must be escalated for review to the Data Protection Officer. The Data Protection Officer shall, if there are significant concerns, either as to the potential damage or distress, or the quantity of data concerned, consult with the relevant authority. Appropriate controls will be selected and applied to reduce the level of risk associated with processing individual data to an acceptable level, to ensure compliance with the GDPR.

Contact The Data Protection Officer

If you have any questions about this privacy policy or AMJ’s treatment of your personal information, you can

write to the Data Protection Officer:

  • by email to international@amjcampbell.com
  • by post to AMJ Campbell International, 6140 Vipond Drive, Mississauga ON L5T 2B2

AMJ understands ‘consent’ to mean that it has been explicitly and freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous indication of the data subject’s wishes by which he or she by statement, or by a clear affirmative action, signifies agreement to the processing of personal data relating to him or her. The consent of the data subject can be withdrawn at any time.

AMJ understands ‘consent’ to mean that the data subject has been fully informed of the intended processing and has signified their agreement, while in a fit state of mind to do so and without pressure being exerted upon them. Consent obtained under duress or on the basis of misleading information will not be a valid basis for processing. There must be some active communication between the parties which demonstrate consent. Consent cannot be inferred from non-response to a communication. For sensitive data, explicit written consent of data subjects must be obtained unless an alternative legitimate basis for processing exists.

In most instances, consent to process personal and sensitive data is obtained routinely by AMJ using standard consent documents. When an enquiry is made to AMJ, relevant information will be sent to the customer if applicable. Where AMJ provides online services to children, parental, or custodial authorization must be obtained. This requirement applies to children under the age of 16.

  1. Security of Data

All employees are responsible for ensuring that any personal data which AMJ holds and for which they are responsible, is kept securely and is not under any conditions disclosed to any third party unless that third party has been specifically authorised by AMJ to receive that information and has entered into a confidentiality agreement.

If consented to, AMJ will provide personal data to the following if applicable:

AMJ Pet Relocation

AMJ FX

AMJ Visa and Emigration Services

AMJ Baggage Services

Personal data may only be deleted or disposed of in line with the Data Retention Policy. Manual records that have reached their retention date are to be shredded and disposed of as ‘confidential waste’. Hard drives of redundant PCs are to be removed and immediately destroyed before disposal. Processing of personal data ‘off-site’ presents a potentially greater risk of loss, theft or damage to personal data. Staff must be specifically authorized to process data off-site.

AMJ will take reasonable technical and organizational precautions to prevent the loss, misuse or alteration of your personal information. AMJ will store all the personal information you provide on its secure servers.

Information relating to electronic transactions entered into the company website will be protected by encryption technology.

10. Rights of Access to Data

Data subjects have the right to access any personal data about them which is held by AMJ in electronic format and manual records which form part of a relevant filing system. This includes the right to inspect confidential personal references received by AMJ, and information obtained from third-party organizations about that person.

  1. Disclosure of Data

AMJ must ensure that personal data is not disclosed to unauthorized third parties which includes family members, friends and in certain circumstances, government bodies and the Police. All employees should exercise caution when asked to disclose personal data held on another individual to a third party and all employees are trained to deal effectively with any such risk. It is important to bear in mind whether or not disclosure of the information is relevant to, and necessary for, the conduct of AMJ’s business.

The GDPR permits certain disclosures without consent so long as the information is requested for one or more of the following purposes:

to safeguard national security

prevention or detection of crime including the apprehension or prosecution of offenders

assessment or collection of tax duty

discharge of regulatory functions (includes health, safety and welfare of persons at work)

to prevent serious harm to a third party;

to protect the vital interests of the individual, this refers to life and death situations

All requests to provide data for one of these reasons must be supported by appropriate paperwork and all such disclosures must be specifically authorized by the Data Protection Officer.

Where AMJ discloses your personal information to third parties for consented or legitimate purposes, the third in question will be obligated to use that personal information in accordance with the terms of this privacy statement. This is applicable for third parties located in all countries, including EU and Non-EU member countries.

  1. Retention and Disposal of Data

Personal data may not be retained for longer than it is required. Once a member of staff has left AMJ, it may not be necessary to retain all the information held on them. Some data will be kept for longer periods than others. AMJ’s data retention and data disposal procedures will apply in all cases.

Personal data must be disposed of in a way that protects the “rights and freedoms” of data subjects (e.g. shredding, disposal as confidential waste, secure electronic deletion) and in line with the company’s secure disposal procedure.
