Quebec's privacy rules changed how a company should start an AI project. As published by the Commission d'accès à l'information du Québec, a business must designate a person responsible for protecting personal information, run a privacy impact assessment when acquiring or redesigning a system involving personal information and before a transfer outside Quebec, tell people when a decision rests exclusively on automated processing, and keep an incident register (as published — confirm current rules with your tax or legal adviser). Each of those lands on an AI pilot.
LATYNEX Digital scopes and builds the AI setup so that your privacy officer has what they need to review. This page covers that work for Montreal businesses. The general service is at AI Implementation for Business, and the market overview is at LATYNEX Digital for businesses in Montreal.
Typical industries
- Professional services and consulting
- Software, gaming and creative studios
- Financial and insurance-adjacent services
- Healthcare-adjacent and wellness services
- Education and training providers
- Retail, e-commerce and distribution
Common lead-handling problems
- AI pilots that start before any privacy assessment exists
- Third-party or offshore model processing not assessed as a transfer outside Quebec
- Automated scoring or routing with no notice to the person and no review path
- No written record of which customer or employee data each AI tool actually sees
Direct answer
If your Montreal company wants AI working on customer or employee data, LATYNEX sets up the AI workspace and first workflows in your own accounts and, during scoping, produces the material your privacy officer needs: a map of what data enters each tool, where each tool processes it, which steps involve an automated decision, and what a human can review. Your privacy officer decides; we supply the facts about the build.
Why the global AI page and the Montreal hub are not enough
The global AI Implementation for Business page describes the service in general, and the Montreal hub covers the market. A Quebec company has extra questions before build: is the tool's processing location outside Quebec, is an assessment needed before it is acquired, and does a workflow make a decision without a person. Those questions change the order of work, so they sit at the start of the scope rather than after launch.
What we prepare for your privacy officer
The output is factual documentation of the build, in plain English.
- A data-flow map: which fields go into which tool, and which are excluded or masked
- Processing-location questions for each vendor, to be answered from the vendor's own documentation
- A list of workflow steps where an outcome is decided automatically, with a proposed human review step
- Where a tool keeps logs, so answering a request for the information used and the main factors is possible
- An export path for data held in the workflow, in a structured, commonly used format, relevant to the portability right as published
What your company keeps, and where custom scope may apply
Your company keeps the privacy impact assessment, the decision to proceed, the notices to individuals, the incident register and the responsible person's role. Vendor terms and processing locations are confirmed with the vendors. If a workflow needs an on-request explanation or correction path, or a self-hosted option to keep processing in a chosen region, that is scoped per project after technical review and may need custom work.
What we do not do
LATYNEX is not a privacy lawyer, does not give legal advice, does not perform the impact assessment for you and does not describe any build as compliant by design. We do not deliver in French and have no presence in Montreal. Questions on French-language obligations are outside this page.
How delivery actually works
LATYNEX Digital has no office in Montreal and does not claim one. We work with Montreal businesses remotely, over video calls and written updates, in English, with the same team and process as in every other market.
Questions
Do you have an office in Montreal?+
No. We work with businesses in Montreal remotely, over video calls and written updates, in English, and we do not imply a local presence.
Do you carry out the privacy impact assessment?+
No. Your company, with its privacy officer or adviser, performs the assessment. We provide accurate technical information about the build to feed into it.
Is the resulting setup compliant with Quebec law?+
We do not give legal advice and do not claim compliance. We document what the build does with data; confirm the legal position with your privacy officer or legal adviser.
Can AI processing stay inside Quebec?+
It depends on the tools chosen. We ask each vendor's documentation where processing happens and flag where a tool processes elsewhere; self-hosted options are scoped per project after technical review.
What happens if a workflow makes an automated decision?+
We flag it in the scope and propose a human review step. Whether and how notice must be given to the person is a question for your privacy officer, as published by the Commission d'accès à l'information.
How are you invoiced, and in what currency?+
In EUR, by Latynex Trade OÜ, a company registered in Estonia (EU). Tax treatment for a client in Canada is confirmed on the quote, and we do not give tax advice.
