As yet, we do not work with any other businesses (legal entities) to which Customers have agreed to provide access to the police check results for a job application or employment screening purpose. Customers explicitly consent to the above disclosure standards through the Informed consent form which they submit along with the application form. Personal information is disclosed to such third parties only when consented to, by the customers.

Any unsolicited personal information of the customer received in due process when lodging the police check or during a dispute investigation will be destroyed immediately in accordance with APP 4 — Dealing with unsolicited personal information guidelines, and Chapter B: Key concepts of the APP guidelines.

Additionally, we may disclose details of a customers’ personal information as part of a privacy breach identified as eligible to be notified to The Australian Information Commissioner under the Notifiable Data Breaches (NDB) scheme of the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and to the Australian Criminal Intelligence Commission as the governing body of the National Police Checking Service.

Security of Personal Information

We take reasonable steps in protecting our customers’ personal information (including police check results) from any unauthorised use, damage, misuse or theft through the implementation of technical, physical and administrative information security safeguards as prescribed in our Enterprise’ Information Security policy. The confidentiality and integrity of personal information is protected by:

Using enterprise-grade cloud hosting services and data-centres approved for use by the Australian Government to store and handle personal or government information.
Restricting access to our internal systems using technical access controls on a need-to-know basis.
Using digital certificates for encryption and authentication approved for use by the Australian Government for data at rest and in transit.
Using secure system administration mechanisms, processes and procedures, such as multi-factor authentication and VPNs.
Firewalls to restrict access to internal system components to a whitelist of trusted IPs.
Running antivirus and anti-malware scanners with up-to-date threat signatures.
Regular patching of servers and workstations running current operating systems and modern browsers.
Strong passphrases for internal system components, which are rotated regularly.
Other technical controls, such as application whitelisting and intrusion prevention systems
Other administrative controls, such as system governance processes and security awareness training
Third party technical threat/risk assessments and audits.

We do not transfer or store personal information of customers at any locations outside of Australia. Access to police check results is made available to customers outside of Australia only when the customer makes such a request and has consented in writing to the transfer of their police check results to an offshore location.

Access To Personal Information

Customers have the right to access their personal information held by us to view, review, update, amend, delete any inaccurate or incorrect information at all times unless certain exceptions apply as set out under APP 12, – Access to Personal Information guidelines of The Privacy Act. When a request of this nature is received, we will take reasonable steps to verify the identity of the customer before granting them access to amend their personal information. We take adequate measures to be satisfied that the customer information held is indeed inaccurate or invalid and needs amendment before actioning the customers’ request to alter the personal information on our records. We do not impose any charges to our customers for this purpose.

Customers can write to our privacy officer using the contact details mentioned in the next section to access and update their personal information.
