Halifax Regional Centre for Education (HRCE) shut down registration for its Excel program Monday morning due to a privacy breach after users said they could see other people’s personal information.
The information available included contact information and some medical information.
The Excel program, which is available in 62 elementary schools, offers before- and after-school care for children.
People reported seeing students’ names, birth dates, and health care information (such as allergies).
