Our Board has no Privacy Policy. They requested an update of Owner information that that the Board keeps filed “somewhere”.
We made a written request for our own Personal Information held by the Condominium Corporation. The Board replied that we can’t have it until they get an update of a form they sent to each Owner. They added that our previous information will be shredded when new information is added to the Owner file.
We seem to be at the mercy of a Board who keep telling Owners that they, the Board, make decisions and not Owners. We are small enough that, with our demographic, the 7 Board members can basically keep themselves elected forever.
We passed the Board a copy of the alberta.ca Fact Sheet Re: PIPA clearly stating the Owner can make a written request for their own information.
That brings us to what might be a next step – and we are asking COF for suggestions. Should we put a call in to the Privacy Commissioner’s office or would our cause even matter & be too petty for them? Thks
