🔥 Industry Trends You Need to Know

Changes to the Australian Privacy Act are here—and they’ll affect charities big and small! Here’s what you need to know:

  • No More Small Charity Exemption: Even if you make under $3 million a year, you’ll now need to comply with privacy laws.

  • Stricter Data Use Rules: Personal data must be collected and used in a fair and transparent way.

  • Expanded Definition of Personal Info: Things like IP addresses and location data are now considered personal info.

  • Tougher Privacy Standards: Charities must ramp up their data protection efforts to avoid breaches.

What You Need to Do:

  • Update your privacy policies.

  • Tighten up data security to avoid breaches.

  • Train your team (and volunteers) on privacy best practices.

  • Get ready for compliance before the new rules kick in.

Act now to protect your community’s data and avoid unnecessary legal headaches. 💼🔑
