In my opinion, when Company A and Company B become partners, they become
joint data controllers. As such, I would say that "consent" or prior
permission is not required. However, they should issue a new Fair
Collection Notice to advise customers of the new partnership in order to
satisfy Principle 1.

Subject: [data-protection] Passing data to another company
Sorry if this posting appears twice, something went funny with my email!
If company A forms a partnetship with company B it may be necessary for
company A to pass personal data to company B so that the service can be
provided to the customer. If the data is passed purely to satisfy the
needs
of the customer and not for marketing purposes is this still classed as
passing to a third party? Does the data subject need to have given
permission?
Thanks,
Stewart.
