4.0 Guest Speaker from the Office of the Privacy Commissioner
A presentation was shared outlining what the privacy act is and how it affects all.
Key information
The Privacy Act 1993 was replaced in 2020, takes into account the changes in technology, addressing the ways information is collected, how it is stored, the amount of information and how it is accessed.
| Privacy Principles | ||
| Collecting personal information | Holding personal information | Using and disclosing personal information |
| Only collect personal information you need | Keep it secure | Make sure it is accurate before using |
| Be fair about how you get it | Let people see their own information | Dispose of the information if it is no longer required |
| Get it directly from the person where possible | If the person advises you that the information is incorrect, then correct it | Only use it for the purpose that it collected |
| Let them know what you are going to do with the information | Only share it if you have good reasons |
An organisation must notify the Privacy Commissioner about a privacy breach. Since December 2020 there has been a significant increase in the number of privacy breaches. The causes of the breaches are 62% human error, 25% malicious attacks, 6% theft of information, 4% other and 3% due to a system fault.
What should organisations due to comply with the Privacy Act:
- Appoint a privacy officer – all organisation must have one regardless of size
- How do you keep your records secure
- Develop good policies for handling personal information
- Developing a privacy statement – the privacy website has a tool to assist with developing a statement, priv-o-matic
- If a breach occurs, confirm facts & notify affected parties
- Make learning about the Privacy Act a priority
- Do regular checks and testing
- Work closely with IT to ensure your systems are secure
