The Australian Government has announced two significant proposed privacy reforms in recent weeks. The first is the introduction of an exposure draft for a new Online Privacy Bill (the Bill) - which would enable the creation of new binding online privacy codes for social media and other online platforms, as well as significantly increasing penalties and enforcement measures for all organisations found in breach of the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (“Privacy Act”).
