Australia's privacy law reforms | 9 Key issues: Quick fire analysis
On Demand webinar

The Australian government recently published a Discussion Paper assessing options for modernisation of the Privacy Act and also released an amendment to the Privacy Act introducing new enforcement measures and a code of conduct and for online platforms. We take a quick fire journey through the key issues considered by the Discussion Paper that will shape the direction of Australian privacy law in the future and explore how these may impact Australian businesses.

This webinar includes a 5 minute analysis of each of the following key points:

  • New Penalties and New Online Privacy Code
  • Changes to Definition of Personal Information
  • Privacy Notices
  • Biometrics and Consent
  • AI and Automated Decision Making
  • Right of Erasure
  • Children
  • Employee Records
  • Security vs Breach
