I think it depends on what was included. While there is no guarantee of privacy for co-applicants on a loan, you have a couple of issues. One, your employee entered into a verbal agreement not to share the information. Two, if the information shared with the other applicants goes beyond information that was pertenent to the credit transaction - i.e., anything that could be construed as trade secrets, etc.
Why do you mail an "application" package back to the applicants with all this information anyway??
