You cannot obtain someone's personal information without their consent. However, if the person has posted this information online (such as on social media), you may be able to access it without breaking any laws. If you need the person's private information for a legitimate purpose, such as an employment background check, you will need to get the person's consent first.

It is difficult to obtain someone's personal information without their consent as it is generally considered an invasion of privacy. There are, however, some instances when this may be legal. For instance, if you are a business customer or have a written agreement with the individual to conduct business together then gathering personal information for legally permissible purposes is allowed. It may also be permitted if you need the person’s contact information in order to respond to a complaint or a request for assistance. If there is another way that you can get the same information without directly asking your neighbor, such as from previous conversations or public sources, then this should be your first choice. If you absolutely must obtain private info from someone without permission there are some steps you need to take - firstly obtain informed consent and document it; secondly inform your neighbor about how their data will be stored and used; thirdly limit any collection of personal data collected only relevant and proportionate information related with the purpose of why it was originally obtained; finally ensure appropriate safeguards such as data security measures have been put in place so that all captured sensitive info is kept confidential. With these precautions taken any risks associated with improper disclosure or use of private knowledge shall have been minimized..
