Todays Educational: Significant amendments to the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (Privacy Act) come into force on 12 March 2014. These amendments give the Australian Information Commissioner greater powers to enforce the Privacy Act. The Privacy Act applies to certain businesses, non-government organisations, private health service providers and businesses that trade in personal information for benefit, service or advantage. There is a direct link between the transparent and responsible treatment of personal information and consumer confidence that retailers should note. For this reason, all businesses and organisations should seriously consider complying with the APPs, irrespective of being bound to them or not.
