10. Privacy Policy

10.1 Users
ISC is committed to protecting the privacy of personal information required to achieve its mission of providing quality services to its customers. ISC respects the privacy of personal information provided to it and has policies, processes and controls in place to help protect and limit access to the personal information of its customers on a “need to know” basis.

ISC’s personal information privacy policies are based on compliance with the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act, all applicable laws and the ten privacy principles established by the Canadian Standards Association's Model Code for the Protection of Personal Information.

When you visit the ISC Website, the server may automatically collect and retain a limited amount of data essential to the efficient operation and security of the Website. However, this information cannot be linked back to a specific individual. An automated process may analyze this data and a statistical report may be created to help ISC identify usage trends and improve its service.

The ISC Website may distribute a small file to your computer, called a "cookie". Cookies may be used in two contexts.  First, the login cookie is optional and is used only to pre-populate the login form for the user as a convenience (i.e. "Remember User Name, Client Number and Account Number”) with no expiration date. Second, the session cookie has a purely technical purpose. It is created only after you have signed in to the Website and is used to track information between you and the application. No personal information is collected, and the cookie is destroyed as soon as you close your browser.

When you voluntarily send us electronic mail to ISC or complete an electronic form that includes identifying information about yourself, ISC will keep a record of this information in order to respond to your inquiry and/or communicate with you generally. The personal information you provide to us is kept in strict confidence and will only be used by authorized personnel to fulfill the purpose for which it was originally collected or for a use consistent with that purpose. ISC does not disclose your information to other public bodies or individuals except as authorized by law or with your consent.


10.2 Public Registries

ISC manages, operates, and provides access to Saskatchewan's public registries on behalf of the Government of Saskatchewan, namely the Land Registry, the Land Surveys Directory, the Corporate Registry, the Personal Property Registry, and the Judgment Registry. These registries contain information about individuals and corporate bodies that is a matter of public record, and therefore not subject to The Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act of Saskatchewan. By submitting your registration information, you agree and acknowledge that all or portions of the registration information become part of the public record, subject to the Terms and Conditions of Use.

10.3 Land Registry Search API
ISC was approved by the Government of Saskatchewan’s Registrar of Titles and Registrar of Personal Property Security (the “Registrar”)  to offer certain qualified customers the ability to perform Land Registry and Judgment Registry searches through ISC`s Land Search API technology. If you would like more information about accessing this technology, please contact ISC by phone at 1-866-275-4721 or by email at: [email protected].

Applications to access the Land Search API must be approved by the Registrar.

Customers seeking access to the Land Search API must be:

(a) customers conducting singular Land and/or Judgment Registry searches only for the purpose of preparing documentation to submit a registration request to the Land Registry for those titles; or
(b) a government entity that is fulfilling a government mandate or purpose that is not a commercial purpose.

ISC’s Land Search API uses technology-based restrictions to protect against misuse, including security protections, single-records restrictions, and monitoring of internet-protocol addresses. Pricing for the Land Search API includes a connection fee and the per-search fee will not be less than the maximum price ISC charges for regular searches.

Revisions to the Terms and Conditions of Use are effective upon posting and your continued use of this Website after such posting will be subject to the revised Terms and Conditions of Use.
