Personal Information Banks

Each Alberta government department is required to have a directory of personal information banks (PIBs) and make it available to the public. A personal information bank lists the type of personal information held by a public body. The public can view a personal information bank to get information about: 
  •         The title or name of the information bank
  •         The location of the information bank
  •         What kind of personal information is contained in the information bank
  •         What categories of individuals the information pertains to
  •         Why the information was collected and how it is used or disclosed
  •         The legal authority for the collection of the information

 A personal information bank does not provide direct access to an individual’s records.
