Consenting to our collection, use and disclosure of your Personal Information
The collection, use or disclosure of your Personal Information by Hazelview requires your knowledge and consent. At certain times, your consent for the collection, use and disclosure of your Personal Information may be implied from the manner in which it is collected.
