Looks like we'll be forced to AGOL for Organisations...
Interesting, I got a note from an ESRI Canada rep on Friday
reminding me to check out the AGOL for Organizations. We discussed the idea of the credit system and how I was worried we might run out. Then coincidenly (?) ESRI releases changes to their AGOL terms of use.
Looks like we'll be forced to move over to the Organizations version as they’re taking away some key
functions of the free version….the “share items privately or private groups”.
Ahh well, just hope the 10K credit sis
enough for a year – should be.

Storing personal information on US servers
Great article from Industry Canada about the do's and dont's regarding data storage on US servers.
The article is a bit dated, I can't confirm if things have changed since 2008 .
"Except in certain situations in British Columbia and Nova Scotia, Canadian Provincial Laws Do No Prohibit The Transfer Of Personal Information To The United States. Public sector bodies and their private sector service providers located in most Canadian provinces are not prohibited from transferring personal information outside of Canada......every other province's laws are clear that the transfer of personal information is permitted."
