Privacy

Controlled entities of the University that are considered “organisations” under the Commonwealth Privacy Act must comply with the following privacy acts:

• Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (Privacy Act)
• 2002年健康记录和信息隐私法(新南威尔士州) (HRIPA).

The University’s controlled entities must have a separate privacy policy that explains the types of personal and/or health information that it collects and holds, 它是如何这样做的，收集的目的是什么, 向谁披露信息, 如何访问或更正您的信息, how you can make a privacy complaint and how that will be actioned, whether your information is likely to be sent overseas and to which countries if applicable.

The following controlled entities have their own privacy policy:

• U@MQ Ltd(OD体育注册登录/体育及康乐)
• MQ保健(诊所和医院).

The Commonwealth Privacy Act contemplates that an entity may have duties under both Commonwealth and State privacy legislation such as a controlled entity of the University. To the extent there are inconsistencies between the Commonwealth Privacy Act and the NSW privacy acts for controlled entities, 联邦隐私法案将会生效.

At a minimum staff should familiarise themselves with the top ten tips for privacy management.

The following should be considered to ensure the University protects personal and health information.
