Privacy Notice

The information you will be submitting through this portal is required for the purpose of providing a security screening assessment. It is collected under the authority of sections 5(2)(c) and (d), 12, and 18 of the Canada Post Corporation Act and is protected by Canada's Privacy Act and Canada Post's Privacy Policy.

A refusal to provide information will lead to a review of whether the person is eligible to hold the position or perform the contract that is associated with this Security Clearance Application. Depending on the level of security screening required, the information collected by Canada Post may be shared with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) and the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS), and some other third-party organizations (such as credit bureaus), which conduct the requisite checks and/or investigation in accordance with Canada Post's Security Screening Business Practice. It is used to support decisions on individuals working or applying to work through appointment, assignment or contract, transfers, or promotions.

It may also be used in the context of updating, or reviewing for cause, the reliability status, security clearance or site access, all of which may lead to a re-assessment of the applicable type of security screening. Information you submit directly to Canada Post, and information gathered subsequently from the requisite checks and/or investigation, may be used to support decisions, which may lead to discipline and/or termination of employment or contractual agreements.

The personal information collected is described in Standard Personal Information Bank PSU 917 (Personnel Security Screening).

You can direct your inquiries regarding Canada Post's privacy practices to the Canada Post Privacy Office at privacy@canadapost.ca. You have the right to file a complaint with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada about the collection and management of your information. The contact information for the Commissioner's Office can be found on its website at priv.gc.ca.
