The Australian government is now in a position to enforce the new “Australian Privacy Principle”.
Please note that new fines are bigger and enforceable, but the compliance need not be onerous, as long as you:
- Disclose information that maybe was collected anonymously, like IP address and data from “cookies”
- Notify individuals when information is collected, how it is used and where it is stored
- Improve the ability for individuals to opt out of marketing communications, and
- Disclose when and where information goes off-shore and take responsibility for any breach.
Termsfeed have made the whole process easy for users of WordPress, see below video.
