Privacy Act, non-consensual distribution of intimate imagessince 4 lines
R.S.S. 1978, c. P-24, Part 2 · Read the law's page
- Do not distribute, or threaten to distribute, an intimate image of another person without that person’s consent; the tort is committed if you know the person does not consent or are reckless as to whether the person consents (s. 7.3).
- Treat an image as an intimate image whether or not the person is identifiable and whether or not the image has been altered in any way, if the person in it is or is depicted as nude or engaging in explicit sexual activity and it was recorded in circumstances that gave rise to a reasonable expectation of privacy (s. 7.1).
- Do not assume consent: a person who consented to a recording or provided the image to another person keeps the expectation of privacy where the recipient knew or ought reasonably to have known that the image was not to be distributed, and once an action is commenced you must establish reasonable grounds to believe you had ongoing consent (ss. 7.4, 7.5).
- Be ready to comply with a court order to make every reasonable effort to make intimate images unavailable, including by removing them from a platform you operate as an internet intermediary or de-indexing them from a search engine (s. 7.7(1)(b.1)).
