iZEV Program consumer consent form

The Incentives for Zero-Emission Vehicles (iZEV) Program provides point-of-sale incentives on eligible zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs). To do this, participating dealerships agree to lower the purchase or lease price of eligible ZEVs and apply to the iZEV Program for a grant on behalf of the purchaser or lessee. In order to apply for this grant, dealerships are required to share the personal information of purchasers or lessees with Transport Canada to support the administration of the iZEV Program.

I, [recipient name], hereby authorize [participating dealership name] to collect my personal information provided to the dealership and provide that information to His Majesty the King in Right of Canada as represented by the Minister of Transport (“Canada”).

3. use the personal information provided to the participating dealership for the purposes of receiving the federal incentive under the iZEV Program and for the purposes outlined below; and
4. validate personal information with the Canadian Council of Motor Transport Administrators for the purposes set out below.

1. administering the iZEV Program, which includes but is not limited to determining the eligibility for a grant under the iZEV Program, evaluating the iZEV Program, and informing any of Canada’s future program policies related to ZEVs; and
2. validating eligible ZEV purchases, which includes the vehicle identification number, province, postal code (and date of birth for individuals) of the purchaser / lessee with the Canadian Council of Motor Transport Administrators.
