AUPE policy aims to safeguard the privacy of all members
EDMONTON — AUPE has approved a privacy policy to ensure that
the union operates in accordance with Alberta’s Personal Information
Protection Act (PIPA).
“We are committed as an organization to upholding the law and
safeguarding the privacy of all AUPE members,” said AUPE Senior

“We view this as not just a legal responsibility, but an ethical
one as well,” Kirkwood said.
In accordance with PIPA, AUPE will ensure that any personal information
collected about members will be used only for the purposes for which
it was collected, she said.
In addition, AUPE has designated a Privacy Officer to deal with privacy
issues and compliance with PIPA.
