Before collecting personal information, an organization is legally obligated to obtain an individual’s consent.

For additional resources on consent and implied consent, please visit the Government of Alberta’s website:

 

Individuals have the right to withdraw their consent. Organizations must inform the individual of the likely consequences of withdrawing consent. 

 

If an individual insists on revoking their consent for their personal information to be stored in HMIS, please email the HMIS Team at hmis@calgaryhomeless.com . A member of the HMIS Team will follow up with staff to ensure HMIS reflects the individual’s consent or withdrawal of consent.
