Leisure Options will take reasonable steps to ensure that personal information it collects uses or discloses is accurate, complete and up to date.
Leisure Options will take reasonable steps to protect personal information it holds from misuse and loss and from unauthorised access, modification or disclosure. Leisure Options will also take reasonable steps to destroy or permanently de-identify personal information if it is no longer needed for any purpose for which the information may be used or disclosed.
Leisure Options will have clearly expressed policies on its management of personal information and these will continue to be readily available. On request from an individual, Leisure Options will take all reasonable steps to let the individual know, generally, what sort of personal information it holds, for what purposes, and how it collects, uses, and discloses that information.

A person may make a complaint if they feel their personal information has been handled inappropriately by a private sector organisation in breach of Leisure Options’ privacy obligations under the Privacy Act.
In the first instance, complaints must be directed to Leisure Option’s Privacy Officer in writing. Leisure Options will investigate the complaint and prepare a response to the complainant in writing within a reasonable period of time.
If the complainant is not satisfied with Leisure Option’s response or the manner in which Leisure Options has dealt with the complaint, the individual may make a formal complaint to the Office of the Federal Privacy Commissioner (“OFPC”). The OFPC will provide Leisure Options with the opportunity to respond to the complaint. Following its enquiries, if the OFPC decides that there is insufficient evidence to support the complaint, the OFPC may dismiss the complaint. Alternatively, if the OFPCC believes there is enough evidence to support the complaint, it will try to conciliate the matter.
If conciliation does not resolve the complaint, depending on the circumstances, the Privacy Commissioner may either close the file or make a determination. A determination could include a requirement that Leisure Options issue an apology, improve practices to reduce likelihood of a breach of the Privacy Act, or compensation to be paid to the complainant.
If the OFPC closes the file, the complainant may apply to the Federal Court or the Federal Magistrates Court by way of appeal. Either party may also appeal to the Administrative Appeal Tribunal for a review of any compensation amount ordered by the Privacy Commissioner.
With the commencement of the Client Incident Management System (CIMS) on 15 January 2018, a new privacy incident report form is available for Leisure options staff to report privacy incidents.
The form requires Leisure Options to enter details about the privacy incident, clients involved, immediate risks, and how the incident is being managed. In addition to the current critical incident report form, the new form will include fields on information security and practices.
