Privacy affects us every day - at home, work, and play. Always check that you can trust an organisation before you give it your information.
When using a new app or online service see if they have a clear privacy policy. What information are they collecting? Will they share it with third parties?
Under the Privacy Act, you have the right to ask for your information. Ask to see your work file so you can check it and, if necessary, correct it.
If you are recording in a public place, be respectful of the privacy and feelings of others. If you suffer an accident, would you be happy to be photographed or filmed?
