Meet the ADM Deadline in an Afternoon
Australian businesses must disclose automated decision-making systems in their privacy policies by December 2026. Our compliance kit walks you through it — identify your systems, assess what needs disclosure, and get ready-to-use policy templates.
Does your software make decisions about people?
If your business is covered by the Privacy Act, you may need to disclose how your systems make decisions about people.
Your software decides who gets access — to credit, insurance, tenancy, or a service.
Pricing, eligibility, or contract conditions are shaped by what your system knows about the individual.
The Privacy Act just got teeth.
New automated decision-making rules require Australian businesses to update their privacy policies before December 10, 2026.
Australian businesses must disclose how automated systems make decisions about people in their privacy policies.
OAIC has increased enforcement activity and continues to investigate privacy breaches across Australian businesses.
Financial penalties can apply for non-compliant privacy policies, including infringement notices and higher penalties for serious breaches.

Frequently asked questions
If you have any other questions, feel free to reach out to our support team.
It depends. While businesses under $3M annual turnover are generally exempt from the Privacy Act, you're already covered if you work with larger companies, handle sensitive data (health, finance, children), or trade in personal information. The exemption may also change in future.
OAIC can issue infringement notices up to $66,000 for non-compliant privacy policies. For serious breaches, civil penalties can reach $330,000. Privacy policies are public documents—OAIC reviews them as part of their privacy compliance work.
The kit is designed to let you handle ADM disclosure yourself — identifying your systems, assessing what triggers disclosure, and drafting compliant policy language. Many businesses can complete this without legal support. If you use a lawyer to review your final policy, having done this work means the review is faster and cheaper.
The kit includes a simple decision framework and real-world examples across multiple industries. If your software makes or helps make decisions about people using their personal information, it's likely ADM. You can also take our free assessment to find out.
Yes. This is built specifically for Australia's Privacy Act amendments and OAIC requirements. It references the exact Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) and uses OAIC's guidance on what constitutes "significantly affects rights or interests."
The kit includes a step-by-step ADM system identifier checklist, privacy policy templates that meet the new disclosure requirements, an impact assessment framework, and a comprehensive compliance checklist to ensure you've covered all requirements.
No. The kit is written for business owners, not lawyers or developers. You'll identify systems you're already using (like your applicant tracking system or fraud detection tool) and get plain-language templates to add to your privacy policy.
