Is Tanager in violation of data protection?

[Amber's]

Hi all, now that Tanager has passed over people's details to pepper. Is it not a possible violation. Of the individuals data protection rights. As nobody has given concent to such practice.

Consent is not the only reason why personal details can be passed over to a 3rd party.

As a simple example, your employer does not need your consent to give your details to the Revenue as they have a legal obligation to do so.

I am not saying that I know they are compliant but if they are legally allowed to sell your mortgage, they probably have the right to pass over the details.
