History and mission


CIPPIC was initially founded on a grant from an Amazon.com cy-près fund that was matched by the Ontario Research Network for Electronic Commerce.[1] In 2007, it received a major donation from professors Robert J. Glushko and Pamela Samuelson which ensured that CIPPIC would be able to continue its operations.[2] CIPPIC continues to operate through donations and the support of the University of Ottawa.


CIPPIC has as its mission "to fill voids in public policy debates on technology law issues, ensure balance in policy and law-making processes, and provide legal assistance to under-represented organizations and individuals on matters involving the intersection of law and technology" and "to provide a high quality and rewarding clinical legal education experience to students of law."[1]



Projects and initiatives

  • January 2008 - CIPPIC calls on government to establish a central, online registry of corporate data breaches.[6]
