The Privacy Amendment (Private Sector) Act 2001 Towards the end of 2001, the Federal government enacted changes to privacy law in Australia. Amendments to the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) ("the Privacy Act"), regulate the way in which many private sector organisations, including BIO-MEDICALS, collect, use, disclose, keep secure and manage personal information.
