According to the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), personal information is any factual or subjective information, recorded or not, about an identifiable individual. This includes information in any form, such as age, name, ID numbers, income, ethnic origin, or blood type. However, PIPEDA also specifies some exceptions to the definition of personal information, such as business contact information. Business contact information is any information that is used for the purpose of communicating or facilitating communication with an individual in relation to their employment, business or profession. This includes the employee’s name, position name or title, work address, work telephone number, work fax number or work electronic address. Therefore, an employee’s business address and business telephone number are not considered personal information under PIPEDA. An employee’s name could be considered personal information if it is not used for business purposes, but it is not clear from the question whether that is the case. An employee’s credit record is clearly personal information under PIPEDA, as it reveals sensitive information about the individual’s financial situation and history.
