Site Changes

On 1 November 2010 the Office of the Privacy Commissioner was integrated into the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC). An interim website for the OAIC is available at www.oaic.gov.au. This site (privacy.gov.au), which only contains information related to the OAIC's privacy function, will be maintained until a combined site is established.

With e-commerce and information flowing around the world quickly and easily, it’s important to be aware of the existence of international privacy laws. Many countries have privacy or data protection regimes. To get information on international privacy law, and privacy regulators and groups outside Australia, see our Links page.
