Privacy Notice and Consent Form Resources

Learn more about working with the recently updated Privacy Notice and Consent form

The British Columbia Real Estate Association (BCREA) recently updated the Privacy Notice and Consent form, which explains to consumers how you'll use and disclose their information. To learn more about the changes and working with the updated form, check out this short video and FAQ document. The updated form is also now available on WEBForms®.

The key change to the form is the addition of four opt-out boxes, which allows consumers to opt out of secondary uses of their personal information—uses that aren't necessary to completing a transaction. The video and FAQ review the purpose of these opt-out boxes and what to do if your client chooses one or more opt outs.

It's important to start working with the updated form and to understand how to use and discuss the form with consumers. If you have any questions, please contact your board or BCREA at [email protected].
