PPIPA in Practice brings together information and interpretations from over 240 NSW privacy cases decided since 2001, including seminal Court of Appeal cases.  It also incorporates the Privacy Commissioner’s advice on the legislation, drawn from various guidelines, newsletters and submissions.  The guide was referenced by the NSW Law Reform Commission in its 2008 Consultation Paper, Privacy Legislation in New South Wales.

The guide is constantly updated so you have the latest information available.

PPIPA in Practice answers common questions such as:

• are photographs “personal information”?
• how does the “suitability for employment” exemption work?
• what form should a privacy notice take?
• what does the Tribunal say about the “reasonable security safeguards” each agency needs to take?
• what do “express consent” and “implied consent” mean in practice?
• when will the “law enforcement” exemption apply?
• how does the PPIP Act interact with the GIPA and State Records Acts?
• how much compensation can be paid for a privacy breach?
  

... and plenty of uncommon questions too!

And new with Edition 5 - we also answer, for each relevant privacy principle, the question: 'How does the rule for health information differ?'
