CAN/DGSI 100-11 Data governance – Part 11: Delivery of community and human services (D2)

This document specifies minimum requirements for the responsible and privacy-preserving collection, storage, use, and sharing of personal information by organisations delivering community and human services. This Standard serves as a guide to help nonprofit organizations and funders engage with their data in ethical and equitable ways and to advance the culture of data collection, storage & use in the sector.

This document is also applicable to nonprofit organisations that are typically small to medium-sized organisations that work within the constraints of smaller teams and a larger breadth of responsibilities in job roles.

Considerations are given to:
• relevant guidelines and practices for data equity;
• client/beneficiary and donor data;
• data governance and management practices;
• privacy regulations and other applicable legislation;
• relevant ethical guidelines and practices; and
• requirements for service providers, funders, and technology vendors.
