The Department’s description
Privacy Notice – Pre-application ballot registration (APP 5)
Australian Government Department of Home Affairs, licensed under Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Australia. Not endorsed by the Department.
Purpose
This is a privacy notice, not a form to complete. It explains, under the Australian Privacy Principles of the Privacy Act 1988, why the Department of Home Affairs collects personal information during a visa pre-application ballot registration and how that information is handled, disclosed, accessed and corrected.
Who lodges it
Other party — it is issued by the Department of Home Affairs and is read (rather than lodged) by a person registering in a visa pre-application ballot.
When it is used
It applies when a person registers for a visa pre-application ballot through ImmiAccount, setting out the collection, use, disclosure (including to government agencies and, with consent, research organisations) and correction of their personal information.
