Handling Confidential Information
In keeping with the Québec government's desire for transparency, Revenu Québec publishes an inventory of its personal information files and other inventories concerning the communication of confidential information. You can refer to them to find out what kind of information about you we keep, where it comes from and who can access it as part of their work, as well as what other public bodies may have confidential information about you.
Inventory of personal information files
In accordance with section 76 of the Act respecting Access to documents held by public bodies and the Protection of personal information (CQLR, c. A-2.1), commonly known as the Access Act, Revenu Québec keeps an inventory of personal information files (in French only).
Inventories concerning the communication of confidential information
Under both the Access Act and the Tax Administration Act (CQLR, c. A-6.002), Revenu Québec can communicate confidential information to third parties. We keep the following inventories (documents in French only):
- Registre d'utilisation des renseignements personnels à une autre fin et de communication ou d'accès à des renseignements confidentiels par des tiers
- Registre de communication de renseignements confidentiels dans le cadre d'ententes avec des organismes publics et des administrations fiscales
Other documents concerning the use of confidential information are available (in French only) under Documents Tabled in the National Assembly.
