GUEST – Dr. Ann Cavoukian, Executive Director of the new Ryerson University Institute for Privacy and Big Data.

TOPIC – Privacy & customer service. When you should give out your information and when you should not.

INFO – On GFB we are getting more and more inquiries and complaints about customers being required to give their date of birth, when talking on the telephone to companies that supply them with goods and services. Good examples would be Rogers and Toronto Hydro. The telephone operators often will not take no for an answer and will not deal with customers unless they give their date of birth.
