privacy

Government agencies are required to comply with the information protection principles in the Privacy and Personal Information Act 1998 (PPIP Act). These regulate the collection, storage, use and disclosure of personal information held by government agencies.

Your personal information

Generally, any personal information you provide to us will be used and/or disclosed for the OIC’s purposes, or a directly related purpose, unless you consent to another use or disclosure, in emergencies or as otherwise required or authorised by law. This website does not use cookies to collect personal information.

At this stage, the provision of information to the OIC is voluntary: no law requires you to provide any personal information to the OIC.

Under the PPIP Act, you have rights to access any personal information held by the OIC, without excessive delay or expense. You also have a right to have your personal information corrected, in certain circumstances (eg. if it is inaccurate). Should you wish to access or correct your personal information, please make a written request to the OIC by:
