“Privacy by design” has been part of the privacy practitioners’ vernacular for well over a decade, but for many the phrase remains vague. In this talk, the author of the IAPP CIPT textbook, Strategic Privacy by Design, will walk through the development of a hypothetical smart thermostat following the recently released Design Process Standard from the Institute of Operational Privacy Design. For many participants this will open up a new avenue of thinking about privacy beyond the laws, principles and programmatic elements they are most familiar with and provide a level of concreteness to the concept beyond the broad to “build privacy in.”

Join the Montréal and Ottawa chapters for an exciting bilingual webinar (French-English) on privacy by design (PbD). The discussion will include an introduction to the PbD concept, PbD in Quebec Law, how a standard can help and a PbD approach.
