Good day
My questions regards how privacy is legally recognized for SPs and clients.
In Canada, it is totally legal for two people to discuss anything that is SP related in private (i.e on a private line, in a private room or place, etc.). My question is twofold:
1. What about discussing something or presenting information in a private website, where people entering there are considered "members", since they agreed to this by registering in the first place, and entered the area using a login and password they have applied for knowingly accepting the privacy issue? I ask this in reference of how a SP could be more elaborate in details if she wished, using a password protected area on her site to explain the menu and other related subjects.
2. What about discussing the same issues in an email, if the connection is a private land based one (not a company owned email or connection or an internet cafe), if there is a statement in the email signature about the private nature of the communication, and if the SP uses her private email (ISP email, not a public email server) ?
I searched Terb for some of these issues, and found many opinions on the matter. I thought I would post more defined questions to make the issue clearer.
Here are some Terb threads:

There are many more, but I didn`t find anything specifically covering the questions I stated above. Also, I consulted many sites on the net, that seem to have opinions that broadly conflict over these issues. What is your view on the matter?
