Can you explain to us the distinction between data or information that is stored on a device and information or data that is only accessible via the device in Canadian law?
The relevance of my question or the precision that I'm looking for is with regard to the regular use of cloud-based storage. While the physical device might be the property of the Government of Canada or a government department, for an individual who has logged in to cloud-based storage of their information, the information isn't stored on the government's device but is accessible via that device through the individual's personal log-in credentials. What's the difference in law?
