Consular case management - Privacy Impact Assessment: Global Affairs Canada - 2023-08-17

The Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) was developed as part of the Department’s commitment to protection of personal information. It also meets the Management of Information Technology Security requirements obligating departmental major services to undergo a security and privacy assessment at this point. One of Global Affairs Canada’s main priorities is the provision of consular services to Canadians. This core function stems from the legal mandate of the Department as set forth in the Department of Foreign Affairs, Trade, and Development Act (2013). Consular Services for Canadians is a multi-layered support program for Canadians who travel or live overseas. The program manages and delivers consular services and advice to Canadians, and provides a coordinated Government of Canada response to emergencies abroad affecting Canadians. This work is done through consular agents and officers at a network of missions and at headquarters.
