For Organisations

Organisations are increasingly reliant upon data. If you have information about people, you will need to understand the compliance requirements that apply to you.
You can access a range of guidance here to help you ensure high standards of data handling practices which will benefit your organisation. 
Your Obligations

Your organisation will be responsible for personal data, whether on a small or large scale. It is an increasingly valuable asset, and it is essential for you to ensure compliance with the regulatory framework that sits around all processing of that data. It is important because it is a legal requirement, but it is also important because it goes to the heart of your business success.
Report a Breach

In certain situations, if your organisation has suffered a personal data breach, the Law requires this to be reported to us. This is an important tool for both the regulated community and the ODPA. Organisations need to ensure they have robust processes in place to respond to data breaches and the ODPA will use the information to support awareness and compliance campaigns.

Investigation Process

Individuals have a legal right to make a complaint to us if they think that the Law has not been complied with. We are also able to conduct inquiries on our own initiative. If you are subject of an investigation or inquiry, find out what to expect here.
