Disclosure of Personal Information. Unless the Province otherwise directs in writing, the Contractor may only disclose personal information to any person other than the Province if the disclosure is for the performance of the Contractor’s obligations, or the exercise of the Contractor’s rights, under the Agreement. If in relation to personal information, the Contractor: receives a third-party request for disclosure; receives a request to disclose, produce or provide access that the Contractor knows or has reason to suspect is for the purpose of responding to a third-party request for disclosure; or has reason to suspect that an unauthorized disclosure of personal information has occurred in response to a third-party request for disclosure, subject to section 24, the Contractor must immediately notify the Province. If the Contractor receives a third-party request described in section 23(a) or (b) but is unable to notify the Province as required by section 23, the Contractor must instead: use its best efforts to direct the party making the third-party request to the Province; provide the Province with reasonable assistance to contest the third-party request; and take reasonable steps to challenge the third party-request, including by presenting evidence with respect to: the control of personal information by the Province as a public body under the Act; the application of the Act to the Contractor as a service provider to the Province; the conflict between the Act and the third-party request; and the potential for the Contractor to be liable for an offence under the Act as a result of complying with the third-party request.
