There have been some significant changes to the Privacy
Act that come into effect on 12 March 2014. Although the
required amendments to your external facing privacy policy will
probably be minimal, it is the internal requirements of your
organisation that will need reviewing.
The changes to the Act will directly affect how your
organisation deals with personal information, and what you need to
review and establish for internal protocols to both avoid a
potential privacy breach and also demonstrate your compliance with
changes to the Privacy Act. This will require a review and
update of your current practices.
To make this easier, Swaab is offering to review both the
internal procedures and the external privacy policy of your
organisation to ensure that your business continues to meet the new
privacy challenges and also provide you with the right tools to
bring your organisation up to compliance before the
deadline of 12 March 2014.
