A practical, evidence‑focused walkthrough of how Canadian SaaS teams can prepare vendor workflows for PPCDA’s proposed direction.
PPCDA is a tabled federal privacy bill that strengthens expectations around vendor oversight. Its proposed direction emphasizes verifiable evidence of how vendors handle, delete, secure, and access customer data — not just documents collected during onboarding.
Vendor workflows become evidence‑heavy under PPCDA’s proposed model, especially during renewals, DSARs, retention enforcement, and access reviews.
Know exactly which vendors hold customer data — and what data flows into each system.
Gather deletion confirmations, access control proof, retention alignment, and security artifacts.
Renewals require updated evidence, not just a SOC 2 or security questionnaire.
Vendors would need to provide exports, deletion proof, and access logs during DSAR fulfillment.
Vendors would need to enforce your retention schedule — and provide evidence of deletion.
Proof of MFA, role‑based access, privileged access restrictions, and revocation logs.
PPCDA is a tabled federal privacy bill. Teams preparing early can strengthen evidence workflows, reduce audit friction, and align operations with the direction regulators are already moving.
