Principle 2 – Identifying Purposes
CHeS will, before or at the time personal information is collected, identify the purposes for which the information is collected, used and disclosed.
What Information is Collected?
CHeS collects and uses personal information to provide students with the best possible educational services enunciated by the Vision and Goals of the school. Most of the information the school collects come to the school directly from parents and students or is information regarding the student’s school activities, or performance or behavior, such as attendance, records, or grades. For example, when a student applies to register in the school, the school will ask you to provide the information that enables it to complete the registration process. This also includes information on academic, health and personal matters needed by the school to provide the best possible education. CHeS also collects information in connection with the use of its computer systems.
Principle 3 – Consent
CHeS will obtain consent of the individual for the collection, use, or disclosure of personal information except where the law states exemptions, grants permission, or creates a requirement for collection, use, or disclosure of personal information.
Requirements for consent to collection, use or disclosure of personal information vary depending on circumstances and on the type of personal information that is intended to be collected, used, or disclosed. In determining whether consent is required and, if so, what form of consent is appropriate, CHeS will take into account both the sensitivity of the personal information, and the purposes for which CHeS will use the information. Consent may be express, implied (including through use of ‘opt- out’ consent where appropriate) or deemed. For example, if an individual provides his/her mailing address and requests information regarding a particular service, consent to use the address to provide the requested information may be implied.
On giving reasonable written notice to CHeS, an individual may withdraw consent to the collection, use, or disclosure of his or her personal information. Upon notice of withdrawal of consent, CHeS will notify the individual of the likely consequences of withdrawing his or her consent and, except where otherwise required or permitted by law, CHeS will stop collecting, using, or disclosing the personal information as requested.
