Software for Vancouver companies, built to BC privacy law
Vancouver companies work under British Columbia's own private-sector privacy law. We build software and apps for them from our Canadian office and our headquarters in India.
Codemites is headquartered in Srinagar, India, with a second office in Mississauga, Canada. We have no office in Vancouver; we work with clients here remotely.
British Columbia is one of the provinces with its own private-sector privacy law, so a Vancouver company's obligations differ from a Toronto one's.
Vancouver also sits on Pacific Time, so our Mississauga office covers your morning and early afternoon rather than the full day.
A Vancouver rule to plan around
Not legal advice; it is what we raise when scoping.
BC Personal Information Protection Act
PIPA regulates how corporations, not-for-profits and other private organizations in BC handle personal information. We map what your software collects to the purpose you have for it.
