| Titre | Australian Privacy Act Gets New Notification Requirements |
| Texte |
With GDPR the focus of many press headlines across the world, you’d think it was the first and only regulation covering the privacy of individuals! However, privacy regulations exist in numerous countries around the globe, and anyone in Australia or its territories will be all-too familiar with the Australian Privacy Act 1988 (which, for simplicity, I'll just refer to as 'the Privacy Act' from this point forward).
Governed by the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC), the Privacy Act introduces 13 Privacy Principles (known as Australian Privacy Principles, or APPs) that guide how the personal information of Australian subjects must be managed. Failure to protect personal information is deemed, “...an interference with the privacy of an individual,” with financial penalties that can go up to AUD$360,000 for individuals, and up to AUD$1.8M for organizations.
What’s top of mind for many who are subject to the Privacy Act is a new amendment -- the Privacy Amendment (Notifiable Data Breaches) Act of 2017. Inspired by the proliferation of personal information stored in electronic form, such as social media content, healthcare records, and more, the amendment acknowledges the increasing risk (and occurrences) relating to breaches of that data.
Starting 22 February 2018, the amendment introduces the Notifiable Data Breaches (NDB) scheme. This requires organizations to notify individuals of an ‘eligible data breach,’ which is defined as when BOTH the following conditions are met:
An individual’s personal information has been subject to unauthorized access, disclosure, or loss; and
The breach is likely to result in serious harm to that individual.
Who Needs To Comply with the Australian Privacy Act?
The Privacy Act applies to all Australian government agencies, businesses, and non-profit organizations with an annual turnover of more than AUD $3 million.
In addition, small businesses and organizations with an annual turnover less than AUD$3 million who fall into the following categories must also comply with the Privacy Act:
Private sector health service providers including:
Traditional healthcare providers (hospitals, day surgeries, medical practitioners, pharmacists, health professionals).
