A privacy breach is the loss or unauthorized disclosure of, or access to, personal information. It may result from the theft or loss of information or data storage devices, or the improper or unauthorized collection, use, disclosure, access, storage or destruction of information, including misdirected correspondence.
Safe Keeping Immigration has developed a Safe Keeping Immigration Protocol outlining the actions to be taken in the event of a suspected breach. We take immediate action by conducting an investigation, reporting the potential breach and taking immediate corrective action to mitigate the impact on those whose information is affected. In the case of a substantial breach, that is, one that involves sensitive personal information and that could reasonably be expected to cause harm or serious prejudice to the individual concerned, Safe Keeping Immigration has an obligation to inform the individual concerned, in addition to informing the Office of the Privacy Commissioner.
