Question: Which of the following is NOT generally permitted under BC PIPA when an organization collects an individual's personal information?
Answer options: ✅ Collecting personal information without consent if it is clearly in the individual's interest and consent cannot be obtained in a timely way.
- Collecting personal information by lawful means.
- Collecting personal information if the information is available to the public from a prescribed source.
- Collecting personal information for a purpose that a reasonable person would consider appropriate in the circumstances.
Correct answer: Collecting personal information without consent if it is clearly in the individual's interest and consent cannot be obtained in a timely way.
Explanation: PIPA section 12 allows collection without consent in specific circumstances, such as when it's clearly in the individual's interest and consent cannot be obtained in a timely way, or when it is for an investigation of a breach of an agreement or a contravention of the laws of Canada or a province. The question presents a general scenario which, without additional specific conditions, might not allow for such collection.
