Settled case summary #20 — A condominium corporation

An individual complained that a condominium corporation disclosed personal information about her dispute with the corporation to all condominium owners. The corporation sent a letter detailing the alleged by-law contravention to all owners, posted it on a bulletin board, and included it in Board meeting minutes. The corporation initially believed only contact information, which it considered publicly available, was disclosed. However, the OPC clarified that the personal information at issue was the fact of the dispute itself. The corporation had disclosed this information without the complainant's consent. The matter was resolved when the condominium corporation sent the complainant a letter of apology.
