What should a Canadian employer check in mentoring software?
Mentoring software holds names, work details, goals and messages about your employees. Treat it like any other tool that handles employee information. Check five things:
- Where the vendor is based and which privacy law governs it.
- Where data is processed and which service providers handle it.
- Sign-in. Does it support SAML or OAuth with your identity provider?
- Price currency. Is the price in Canadian or US dollars?
- Plan fit. Which plan holds the reporting you need?
Is MentorStack a Canadian company?

The Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) is the primary privacy law that applies to us. This is a statement about where the company is based.

Where is customer data processed?
Our service providers process customer data in the United States. The privacy policy names each provider, and the Data Processing Agreement lists each one with its purpose and location. Ask every vendor on your shortlist the same question and compare the written answers. Your privacy officer decides whether that meets your requirements.
