PrivacySolver — by PolicySolver
Alberta rewrote its privacy law.
Every public body in the province now owes its residents a real, working privacy program.
Including every municipality. With deadlines that do not care how busy your team is. PrivacySolver runs the program — and files the proof underneath it.
The mountain
For the team that runs a municipality, that is a mountain of statute.
Alberta's Protection of Privacy Act applies to every public body in the province, and every municipality carries the same obligations. The deadlines are the same. The proof expected of you is the same.
PrivacySolver opens on one honest picture: how ready your program actually is, computed from live, filed proof.
- Nothing is rounded up, and nothing locked is hidden
- Six legislated gates sit under the ring — every green opens its proof
- Anything still locked tells you the legal reason why
The journey
The statute becomes a journey you can actually climb.
Each milestone knows exactly which part of the law it satisfies, and who has to act on it. Completed steps bloom green — and they stay honest, because each one is tied to the filed record underneath it.
- BylawsProgram authority, adopted by council
- DesignationsThe head, and the person responsible for privacy
- ConsentCollection, use, and disclosure authority
- Impact assessmentsPrivacy impact assessments before you collect
- PI inventoryThe personal information you actually hold
- TrainingStaff awareness, tracked to a name
- Breach processAssessment, notification, and the record of both
A designation letter with a hash-verified signature. Governance documents, attested by name.
And if you would rather skip the scenery, one click shows you the plain list.
Operations
Every statutory clock in one quiet observatory, counted in business days, soonest first.
Operations is where the deadlines live. Access requests, correction requests, incidents — all of them on the same page, all of them counting.
And when a legal clock is breached, the magic stops. The file turns red, it goes to the top, and it stays loud until a human deals with it.
- The interim clocks the law creates along the way, not just the final one
- A checklist you must complete before it will let you close the file
- An event log that remembers every decision, so you can defend any file years later
Personal information inventory
Silence never turns green.
Building the inventory stops being a spreadsheet chase. Every department gets one survey. Complete means a submitted inventory, or a positive, attested nil return, signed by a real name.
And then your program becomes a document. Literally.
- One survey per department, in plain English
- Every live section of your program lit by a human confirmation
- When it is complete, your municipality signs the exact snapshot and files it
That signed program is the record the Commissioner expects you to have.
For every employee
Jesse has never read a privacy statute in his life.
PrivacySolver is not just for the privacy officer. Jesse operates utilities equipment. A lost tablet. An email sent to the wrong person. He reports it in plain words, in under a minute — what happened, where, and when. No legal training required.
The system decides nothing on its own. It simply makes sure the right person sees it, with the clock already running.
- Plain words in, a properly classified incident out
- Under a minute, from a phone in a truck
- The statutory clock starts the moment it is reported
The privacy officer's inbox
Everything that needs a human lands in one inbox.
Every item comes from a fact already on file, and returns you to the exact place where you can resolve it. The bell and this page always show the same list.
So nothing important can hide in anyone's email.
- One list, whether you open the bell or the page
- Every item traceable to the filed fact that raised it
- One click back to where the work actually gets done
A clear morning
A privacy program should not be a mountain. It should be a clear morning, and a short list.
- What is due, in business days, soonest first
- What is still locked, and the legal reason why
- What needs a human today, in one inbox
