Australia's Privacy Act 1988 and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) impose specific obligations when personal information is disclosed to overseas recipients. Here's how to structure compliant offshore development partnerships.
Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) for Offshore
APP 8 requires that before disclosing personal information overseas, you take reasonable steps to ensure the overseas recipient handles it in accordance with the APPs. You remain accountable for any mishandling. This applies to all personal information your offshore team may access during development.
Data Handling Requirements
Implement data minimization — only share personal information that's necessary for development. Use synthetic test data wherever possible. Encrypt all data in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest. Maintain access logs and conduct regular access reviews. Implement geographic access restrictions on sensitive data stores.
