Nonprofit IT Support Vancouver

British Columbia's nonprofit sector operates under a unique regulatory environment — BC nonprofits are subject to both the federal Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and the provincial Personal Information Protection Act (PIPA BC). Organizations that handle personal information of BC residents must comply with both laws, creating additional compliance complexity that most general IT providers aren't equipped to address.

PIPA British Columbia Compliance

PIPA BC applies to private sector organizations in British Columbia, including nonprofits that engage in commercial activity. BC's privacy law has requirements that differ from PIPEDA in important ways — including different consent standards, individual rights, and breach notification requirements. Our compliance program addresses both PIPA BC and PIPEDA obligations for Vancouver-area nonprofits.

Vancouver Foundation grantees and BC government-funded nonprofits are increasingly required to demonstrate documented privacy practices. We produce the compliance documentation that BC funders and government partners require.

Vancouver Nonprofit Community

Metro Vancouver is home to a large and diverse charitable sector — social service agencies, arts and culture organizations, environmental nonprofits, healthcare and hospice organizations, and settlement agencies serving one of Canada's most diverse immigrant communities. We understand the specific technology and data challenges facing organizations that serve Metro Vancouver's diverse communities.

United Way BC and Social Service Agencies

United Way BC grantees and BC government-contracted social service agencies manage sensitive beneficiary data under strict confidentiality requirements. Our managed IT and cybersecurity services protect this data while ensuring systems remain available for front-line service delivery.
