Personal information of prospective tenants in units managed by Del is also collected from credit reporting agencies. Personal information includes contact information (for example, name, mailing address, e-mail address, telephone number), demographic information, household information, emergency contact, vehicle information and financial information.

USE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION BY DEL

2. Del uses personal information that it collects to manage the rental of residential units, to communicate with individuals, and to understand individual needs and preferences.

Del may, from time to time, contact individuals by electronic format, regular mail or telephone for any of the purposes set out above.

3. Del will not knowingly disclose personal information to any third parties except in the following circumstances:

  • When Del has received consent to do so or under limited circumstances specifically described at such time as personal information is collected;

  • To its agents and professional advisors for the purpose of collection of rents, fees, realty taxes, common expenses and any other assessments or charges levied by condominium corporations and for the purpose of enforcement of agreements;
  • To the particular condominium corporation, members of its Board of Directors and those attending a meeting of the Directors of the particular condominium corporation for the purpose of fulfilling its responsibilities as a rental management company;
  • In the event that management of a particular residential unit is transferred to another management company, Del may disclose personal information of owners and tenants of such condominium property to such management company;
  • In the event of the sale of Del, personal information may be one of the transferred business assets.
