APP 8.1 Before an APP entity discloses personal

information to an overseas recipient, the entity must take reasonable steps to ensure that the overseas recipient does not breach the APPs in relation to that information

Australian Privacy Principle 8 – Key Points

Page 29: Lawyers in the Cloud

page | 29

When does an APP entity ‘disclose’ personal information about an individual to an overseas recipient?

Disclose is narrowly construed Release of information from effective control Distinct from ‘unauthorised access’ in APP 11 Includes where by an act (positive or accidental) the

data is accessed by an overseas recipient.

Australian Privacy Principle 8 – Key Concepts

Page 30: Lawyers in the Cloud

page | 30

‘Use’ Distinct from a 'disclosure'. Maintaining control (as against release). Limited circumstance where a use may not

be a disclosure.

Australian Privacy Principle 8 – Key Concepts

Page 31: Lawyers in the Cloud

page | 31

Reasonable steps depends on: Nature of data Relationship with the overseas entity Risk of harm to individual Existing technical and operational safeguards

implemented by overseas entity and the practicability of taking particular steps.

Australian Privacy Principle 8 – Key Concepts

Exceptions to 8.1 and s16C Disclosure to an overseas recipient that is subject to

a similar law or binding scheme where the APP entity believes that: the overseas recipient is subject to a law, or binding

scheme, that has the effect of protecting the information in a way that, overall, is at least substantially similar to the way the APPs protect information, and

mechanisms can be accessed by the individual to enforce the protection of the law or binding scheme.

Australian Privacy Principle 8 – Key Points

Page 33: Lawyers in the Cloud

page | 33

APP entity expressly informs the individual that if they consent to the disclosure, this principle will not apply, and the individual then consents to the disclosure.

‘Expressly inform’ Clear written or oral statement which explains that

if the person consents and the overseas recipient breaches, the entity will not be accountable under the Privacy Act and the person will have no remedy.

The magic data formula• Data Value = DV The inherent ability to contact customers, diagnose

problems or otherwise leverage data and turn it into intelligence. The ability to take knowledge based commercial or social risks. The ability to report objective progress that is correlated to data and good governance

• Data Risk = DR The legal, social or economic costs of mishandling, misappropriating or otherwise failing to recognize the potential for data to become transformed into intelligence or leveraged in a positive fashion.

SO,DV > DR = Success.Michelle Dennedy CPO McAfee PAW 2013 Brisbane
