Discontinued Case Summary #2014-004: Complaint discontinued on the basis of bad faith as complainant had released the retailer from liability

A retailer

The complainant settled a legal dispute with a retailer by signing a mutual release, which included releasing the retailer from all past, present, and future claims and complaints. Subsequently, the complainant filed a privacy complaint alleging the retailer failed to provide access to her personal information. The Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada (OPC) discontinued the investigation, finding the complaint was made in bad faith because the complainant had already released the retailer from such claims.
