Privacy Question
I have one.
Is the onus soley on the entity holding an indiviual's private information to ensure it is used/released in accordance with the law, or is there also an onus on entities asking for private information to know if they should ask for the information.
example:
Company A has information on individual Z, collected through the normal course of their business. Company B askes Company A for information on individual Z.
I know Company A must ensure they are compliant with PIPEDA, but is there also an onus on Company B to know what the can request?
I hope that is complicated enough....
