ABOUT US

The Intimate Privacy Project was founded in 2020 by Claire Feltrin, a Canadian privacy lawyer passionate about combatting technology-facilitated gender-based violence.

 

The Project is a Canadian-based initiative aimed at educating targets of non-consensual distribution of intimate images (NCDII) and the lawyers who represent them about both legal and practical avenues of recourse.
