Go ahead and complain to the privacy commissioner ...

CFCN of Calgary, Alberta is running a story about an individual who was called by a telemarketer on behalf of a life insurer, who got the individual's personal information from one of Canada's large retailers. The individual was upset that they had his birthdate, which was also obtained from the same source. The individual had not opted out from the information sharing.

The story is interesting also because it suggests that readers complain to the Information and Privacy Commissioner of Alberta: See the article here: CFCN.ca - Calgary news from CFCN, CTV
