If passed, Bill C-27 would give Canadians more control over how companies use their personal information.
The federal government has introduced privacy legislation designed to give Canadians more control over their personal online data.
Bill C-27 was presented by Innovation Minister Francois-Philippe Champagne in the House of Commons today.
The proposed bill would allow Canadians to ask for their information to be disposed of when it is no longer needed by companies.
Officials also say if passed, the bill would protect minors by limiting organizations' right to collect or use their information.
The bill would also give the privacy commissioner of Canada broader powers, including the ability to order businesses to stop using or collecting personal information, and penalize non-compliant organizations with fines of up to five percent of global revenue or $25 million.
