If you are a public or private sector organisation our law states that you must have a privacy policy or statement in place, including your website terms of use. We can help get these documents in order for you.
Changes to the Privacy Act came into force on 1st December 2020 and you are required to follow a strict set of rules when handling personal information. Your privacy policy and website terms must outline how you will be:
Collecting personal information
Holding personal information
Using and sharing personal information
In addition, there are also different privacy rules to be included in your privacy policy for specific industries that you may need to be aware of.
If you hold information on your website about your users, you must have a website terms of use. This sets out how a visitor to your website should conduct themselves and what happens with their personal information while they are there. This is a legally binding contract between both parties.
It’s our goal to help your business be legally compliant with the Privacy Act amendments, and if anything goes wrong you have procedures in place.
We can work with you to:
Explore each part of your internal practices to ensure you are compliant
Provide you with website terms of use, so everyone can see that your company can be trusted with key personal data
Supply your business with a privacy policy manual that clearly outlines the steps to take if there is a data breach
Protect your business with the correct legal documentation, including your terms of trade
Alternatively, you can give us a call on 0800 324 768 or find your local representative here.
A statement on your privacy policy should also be included in your terms of trade documentation.
Have you got outdated or no terms of trade? We can help you with that too.
