A-8.2 - Credit Assessment Agents Act
Section 10
Disposition versions
10. A security alert requires the credit assessment agent holding the record concerned to notify the third party, to whom the agent communicates personal information the record contains or information produced on the basis of that information, of the third party’s obligation under section 19.1 of the Act respecting the protection of personal information in the private sector (chapter P-39.1) and of a telephone number at which the person concerned or, if applicable, the representative of the person concerned or the person having parental authority over the person concerned may be contacted to prove his or her identity.
Where an agent communicates such information in a credit report or other document, the notice provided for in the first paragraph must clearly appear on the report or document.
The first and second paragraphs do not apply if the law provides that the information may be communicated to a third party without the consent of the person concerned.
