Alberta PIPA Copilot
Alberta's private-sector privacy statute, not a PIPEDA clone.
What the Alberta PIPA Copilot Can Do
Walk Alberta PIPA by Part and section title from the official Act
Separate Alberta PIPA from BC PIPA and from PIPEDA so you do not paste the wrong statute into the file
Draft consent, access, and correction documentation against the Alberta section numbers
Prepare incident and notification records where the Act titles those duties
Cross-map to PIPEDA for inter-provincial and international commercial activity
Keep the 2024 Alberta public-sector Protection of Privacy Act (SA 2024, c. P-28.5) out of this page. That is a different statute
About Alberta PIPA Copilot
Alberta PIPA Copilot helps organisations that collect, use, or disclose personal information in Alberta work through the Personal Information Protection Act, SA 2003, c. P-6.5. It is the provincial counterpart to PIPEDA for most intra-Alberta private-sector activity. Documentation support only. Not legal advice and not an OIPC Alberta determination.

Is Alberta PIPA the same as PIPEDA?
No. PIPEDA is the federal commercial-activity statute. Alberta PIPA is the provincial private-sector statute, deemed substantially similar under PIPEDA s. 26(2)(b) for most intra-Alberta activity. Federally regulated works, undertakings and businesses stay with PIPEDA. See /learn/pipeda-vs-quebec-law-25 for the federal/provincial split pattern.
Is this the same PIPA as British Columbia?
No. Same short name, different statute (SA 2003, c. P-6.5 vs SBC 2003, c. 63), different OIPC. Use /frameworks/ca-bc-pipa for British Columbia.
Does the Copilot replace Alberta privacy counsel?
No. It drafts documentation against the official section titles. An OIPC Alberta file or a substantially-similar determination is legal work.
