Dr. Stephanie Perrin received her doctorate from the University of Toronto Faculty of Information in the spring of 2018. Her research is on why ICANN, the Internet Corporation of Assigned Names and Numbers that runs critical aspects of the Domain Name System (DNS) for the Internet, does not implement privacy protection for end users in its policies. She worked for 30 years in the federal government of Canada, mostly on data protection and freedom of information issues in the context of information and communication technologies. Stephanie was the Director of Privacy Policy at Industry Canada in charge of developing PIPEDA, Canada’s privacy legislation for the private sector which passed Parliament in 2000. She then went to the private sector, where she was the first Chief Privacy Officer in Canada, working for the Montreal start-up Zero Knowledge Systems, promoting their ground breaking anonymous browsing and private credentials products. Active in domestic and international privacy policy and compliance fora, Stephanie has been involved in privacy issues at the practical, policy and legislative level since 1984.
