The Australian Privacy Principles

The Australian Government introduced updated legislation in 2014 its Privacy Act (1988), to further enhance the protection and handling of an individual’s privacy and personal information.  These principles replace the previous National Privacy Principles that operated from 2001.  You can find out more about the Australian Privacy Principles by calling the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner on 1300 36 39 92 or through their website at www.oaic.gov.au.

Personal Information” means information or an opinion about an identified individual, or an individual who is reasonably identifiable:

  1. whether the information or opinion is true or not; and
  2. whether the information or opinion is recorded in a material form or not.

Insight Advisory Group respects and upholds your right to privacy protection under the Australian Privacy Principles in regulating how we collect, use, disclose and hold your Personal Information. We have a detailed policy and set of procedures to ensure that only authorised staff have access to your personal information, that it remains confidential and is only used for appropriate purposes and in accordance with this policy.

In addition to the Australian Privacy Principles, individuals located in the European Union (EU) may also have rights under EU based rules known as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The GDPR has harmonised the data privacy laws of each individual EU country, giving more rights to individuals located in the EU and more obligations to organisations holding their personal information.

Details of additional rights of individuals located in the EU and how we meet them are outlined in the relevant section below.

Lastly , please note however this policy is not intended to cover categories of personal information that are not covered by the Privacy Act or GDPR.
