Privacy regulator releases update for brands, publishers on tracking pixels, use of cleanrooms and data matching – then fines begin

Brands and publishers were put on notice yesterday that policing, fines and infringement notices are coming over the use, disclosure and consent required for tracking pixels on websites – and the likelihood that some user details in data matching and cleanroom processing is “personal information” and breaches current privacy legislation. The Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC), which houses Australia’s Privacy Commissioner, this week published new advice on pixels and personal information, ahead of an enforcement crackdown flagged last month in Mi3’s podcast with Privacy Commissioner Carly Kind. The OAIC now has powers to impose substantial fines – up to $330,000 – and has signalled more aggressive policing. Privacy specialists urge brands and publishers to heed the warnings ahead of the new year.
