        Threshold compliance checklist — GDPR and the Privacy Act
| Introductory note: | 
| The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a regime of personal data protection requirements adopted by the European Parliament which regulates “personal data”. While GDPR is EU law, it has unprecedented extra-territorial reach. If the GDPR applies to your organisation, you must ensure that your organisation complies with both the GDPR and the Australian Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (the Privacy Act). | 
| How to use this checklist: | 
| This checklist will guide you through the key threshold considerations for your organisations to ensure compliance with both the GDPR and the Privacy Act. |
