There is no doubt that the information you collect is sensitive in nature. When clients commission your help in collecting market, insights, and survey research, they will often provide you with documents that may outline their strategic imperatives and other confidential details. In fact, in most cases, your clients will even ask you to sign a non-disclosure agreement before engaging in any type of contract. Canada has also recently introduced very strict privacy regulations associated with large fines for privacy breaches.

PROLINK can help. Our Data Security and Privacy Breach Insurance will allow you to act quickly to investigate and navigate a breach, as well as provide funds to manage your cash flow.
