A History in Accountability
In 2002, Nymity was founded in Canada on the principle of providing accountability solutions to ensure that privacy professionals were kept informed of the latest compliance developments around the world. This vision remains today and as a global research firm and software developer, Nymity’s compliance solutions cater to all types of privacy regimes within organizations around the world.

One of the fundamentals of privacy in Canada is the accountability principle established in 1995 in the CSA Privacy Principles – this principle has become a standard for privacy worldwide. Since Nymity’s inception, accountability has been included as a core component of its research methodology- not just for Canada - but for everywhere in the world.

A Global Network of Research Contributors
To augment its analytical research content, Nymity works with a worldwide group of Research Contributors to provide a practical perspective for compliance management. These contributing individuals are also experts in their various disciplines and many have written compliance requirements themselves.

Over 10 Years of Innovation
Nymity has a proven track record of innovating compliance and our customers can attest to that. Nymity’s path to innovation started with a risk/controls research methodology that formed the foundation for Nymity’s award-winning SaaS Compliance Solutions. The innovation continues as Nymity continues to host best-practise forums around the world - with law makers, policy makers, and enforcement bodies - to demonstrate that organizations can report accountability directly to regulators.

This innovation is entrenched in Nymity’s solutions. Innovating to meet the regulatory developments and needs of customers, Nymity developed an online US Breach Centre. Most recently, the EU Breach Response Centre was developed based on the requests of customers.
