Consumer Protection B.C issued a compliance order against Trans Union to remove all data it held over 6 years. Trans Union refused to comply with the compliance order as felt obligated to report "substantiated facts", longer than six years. TransUnion requested a review of the compliance order which led to court action. The BC Supreme Court ruled that the compliance order was lawful.[2][3]
