IP received a question from a unit owner in an apartment building stating that he has noticed that the overall electricity consumption in his building is high. He believes that the private companies are connected to the common electricity in the building and the occupants are paying for the electricity for them. He has asked the electricity company and the building manager for information about who uses the shared electricity. They refused to answer him, in order to protect personal data. The DPA held that if the disclosure of certain personal data is necessary for the proper determination of obligations to other unit owners (apartment building), then the unit owners have a right to it. This means that the manager can provide it to a unit owner without the consent of the other unit owners. This information may only be provided in a manner that precludes disclosure by unauthorized persons.
