Privacy Policy
In July 2014, Canada’s Anti-Spam Legislation, commonly known as “CASL,” came into force. CASL regulates the use of electronic messages, such as emails, for the purpose of encouraging participation in a “commercial activity.” To comply with CASL, emails sent by the College to registrants, members and stakeholders promoting what is considered to be a commercial activity will contain an unsubscribe function. By using the unsubscribe function, College members and stakeholders will not receive further emails with respect to the specified commercial activity. College members will not be able to unsubscribe to emails from the College which do not constitute a “commercial activity.”
If you have any questions, please email jlynch@crnnl.ca.
Emails sent from an @crnnl.ca email address, along with any attached files, are intended for the sole use of the individual or entity to which it is addressed and may contain privileged and/or confidential information. Any other distribution, copying or disclosure is strictly prohibited. If you received an email in error, please notify the sender and immediately delete the email and all attachments.
The College of Registered Nurses is committed to protecting the privacy of any personal information you may provide when visiting our website.

Use of this website is done so anonymously with the exception of MyCRNNL (which requires members to log in to access member services). Personal information that is voluntarily submitted may be collected for the purpose of responding to an inquiry or reviewing an application (e.g., Awards for Excellence). Only those who “need to know” will have access to the information you provide.
