How can I protect my customer data online?

As a business, one of your key priorities is ensuring you're compliant with the Privacy Act 1988 and the Australian Privacy Principles. This often involves having a strong Privacy Policy in place that is drafted to your business' specific requirements.

Generally, a Privacy Policy will let users know how you intend to collect, store and distribute their personal information.

To further protect customer data, it's advised that you have a strong cyber security system in place. While this will look different for every business, generally it should involve having NDAs, confidentiality clauses, two-factor authentication and Non-Compete clauses in your contracts.
