Privacy protection

The department values the privacy of every individual and we’re committed to protecting all personal information it collects. In Victoria, the primary law that outlines privacy requirements is the Privacy and Data Protection Act 2014 (Vic). This law sets out what the department must do when it collects, uses, handles and destroys personal information. Personal information will also be handled in accordance with the department’s information privacy policy. Personal information includes images which can identify an individual.

Collection, use, disclosure and storage of images

These marketing and communication initiatives include, without limitation, social media, websites, email marketing, exhibitions and trade show displays, printed material, reports, outdoor advertising campaigns and website and e-marketing promotions.

Such initiatives may involve the disclosure of the images to third party service providers, media outlets and other Victorian or Local Government entities and community partners to produce, publish and distribute materials containing the images.
