Property manager wont disclose new tenant's information?

[Robert Hernandez]

First time investor and I just put my first ever new tenant into one of my units. My PM mentioned the tenant was screened and meet income, background, criminal background search and all this was done on appfolio.

I asked for her application. And my PM mentioned that they cannot share because the applicant agreed to share the info with the property manager company. And the PM company cannot share the info with anyone even the owner. And that the applicant will have to share that to the owner. 

Is this abnormal? This is my first rental. My PM seems good through. They send me lease report on time and also evicted a tenant that didn't pay and didn't let it drag on. 

Just a first time owner that is trying to figure out the realestate landscape.
