ATV Association of Manitoba

Policy Number: 2009-0701

The All-Terrain Vehicle Association of Manitoba (ATVMB) recognizes that the right to privacy is an important issue. We understand the importance of maintaining anonymity and protecting the private information of our members. As a result, ATVMB manages personal information with great care, as reflected throughout this policy.

While we have always tried to ensure that personal information is protected, this policy provides all of the safeguards as standardized in the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA). This recent piece of Federal Legislation is the first step to formally protecting the interests of our members.

This policy applies to all personal information about identifiable ATVMB members and their families that has been or is collected, used or disclosed by ATVMB. It also applies to the management of personal information in any form, whether oral, electronic or written.
