As well as keeping your organisation on the right side of the law, getting privacy right ensures a much better experience for your staff and clients, and can truly enable better business. Getting privacy wrong can spell disaster for an organisation’s reputation. It can cause serious harm to the people affected, and it can create significant legal and financial liability.

Join Simply Privacy Principal and Director Daimhin Warner for a practical discussion on the implications of the Privacy Act and IPPs for vet clinics and animal shelters. In this virtual session, Daimhin will explain what privacy is (and is not), what personal information is, what the IPPs require, and what happens if it all goes wrong. He will also explore a few known pain points for vet clinics and others who deal with animals, including when and how personal information should be shared with the Police.
