I am a shareholder of a non-profit Management Company and along with other Shareholders I have to pay an annual membership fee.
Last year I had a dispute (personal) with a fellow shareholder. The fellow shareholder discussed my dispute with the Management Company Directors as he thought they could intervene and assist him to resolve the dispute in his favour.
The dispute never came to a resolution.
Today I have been given a copy of a series of e-mails (SAR) which shows clearly that one of the Directors had told my neighbour confidential information relating to my financial dealings with the Management Company. The e-mails do not identify which of the Directors shared the information with the shareholder.
Since the incident occurred, all of the Directors have resigned.
In my opinion (correct me if I am wrong) the divulging of personal information held by the company was a breach of GDPR.
If this is the case, do I have any legal redress on the Management Company for the breach, and if so, what. Also would the claim be against the Company, or the Directors at the time.
