Privacy

Do you want to know more about how your privacy is protected?

As part of the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare (AIHW), the Australian Mesothelioma Registry (AMR), observes the Australian Privacy Principles set out in the Privacy Act 1988 when collecting and dealing with any personal information.

The AMR does not allow the publication of information that may identify individuals, or might potentially identify them.

Links to other websites, external to the AMR, are sometimes included in web pages for the convenience of website users, but the AMR does not have any responsibility for the privacy practices of third party websites linked to the AMR website.

Is information collected about your website visit?

Visitor logs are used on this website for statistical purposes and administrative purposes only.

What does the AMR do with personal information provided in feedback?

Email addresses provided to this website will only be used to respond to enquiries and will not be added to mailing lists, or disclosed to any other party without the user's consent, unless required to do so by law. Personal information will be kept in safe custody, sufficient to prevent unauthorised access, and will be properly handled to ensure its safety, integrity and confidentiality.

AIHW’s governing legislation contains strict confidentiality requirements which apply to the AMR. Under these arrangements, law enforcement agencies are not able to compel production of personal information contained in the AMR.
