Text: data was collected from the institute for clinical evaluative sciences (ices). patient information therefore is protected following the ices privacy policy listed below: in canada, public institutions are required to protect the privacy of citizens whose information they collect. typically, this is achieved through one or more overarching privacy law that governs the public service in a jurisdiction, sometimes in combination with other laws tailored to specific areas of activity, like health care. most, if not all, recognize the public value of research and statistical activities and provide some mechanism for making information available for them. ices collects information through these mechanisms in federal and provincial laws across canada, most notably section 45 of ontarios personal health information protection act (phipa). ices is committed to protecting the information it collects. to achieve this, ices implements the privacy policies and practices required by the ipc under section 45 of phipa.ices has recently launched their data and analytic services (das) which allows researchers who are not affiliated with ices to access de-identified cohorts of data in a secure setting (http://www.ices.on.ca/data-services).<|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|>
