How will Aboriginal learner data be secured and protected against unauthorized use?
The Aboriginal learner data is stored in a secure area that is tightly controlled to prevent unauthorized access to personal data. In terms of use, no access to personally identifiable data will be allowed without a legitimate and justified business need. In short, personally identifiable data indicating Aboriginal identity will be treated with the same due diligence as all other personal information under the stewardship of Alberta Education. School authorities must also meet their obligations to protect the information in accordance with the Student Record Regulation and applicable privacy legislation.
