Webinar: Privacy Issues surrounding Virtual Meetings and Electronic Voting (Wed, Feb 3 @ 5pm)

Ontario is looking at permanently enabling virtual meetings, e-voting and email notification to owners. Most of you have already experienced these but have you ever turned your mind to any privacy issues raised by this new way of doing business? We’ve been swamped with questions.

Our panelists tackled the following topics:

Privacy

• Can condo corporations provide owner information to third party providers?
• What privacy legislation apply to CondoLand?
• Does PIPEDA apply?
• Does the Anti-Spam Legislation apply?
• Must owners first provide their consent?
• Can owners opt out of email notification?
• Should management/corporation get a sneak peak of electoral results?
• Are owners entitled to know the breakdown of electoral results?
