The University of Guelph, under the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act [s.44 [1]], has made available a directory of Personal Information Banks [2]. This directory outlines what personal information is held by various departments along with the uses and retention policies for that information.

If you are seeking access to your own personal information, please identify the Personal Information Bank and/or location of the personal information record in question when completing your information request under FIPPA [3].

If you believe your personal information held within one of these banks has been used in a manner inconsistent with FIPPA or inconsistent with the uses outlined in this directory, please view our page on Privacy Incidents and Complaints [4],or contact the Privacy Officer [5].

A clearly defined request will greatly assist the University to identify the records/personal information sought. And please note that University may contact you about the facts and circumstances of the situation to clarify the access or correction request.
