Legal Profession Admission Board
Privacy Collection Notice
The Legal Profession Admission Board (the Board) has established this Customer Relationship Management System (CRM System) to facilitate the administration and delivery of the Board's services.
The Board is bound by the Privacy and Personal Information Protection Act 1998 (PPIP Act) and the Health Records and Information Privacy Act 2002 (HRIP Act). The PPIP Act and HRIP Act have Information Protection Principles and Health Privacy Principles that regulate:
· What information we collect and how we collect it;
· How we store and protect personal and health information;
· How you can find out what information we hold and correct it if it is wrong;
· How we can use and disclose your information;
· How you can complain about breaches of your privacy.
The Board will use and disclose personal and health information for the purpose of administering and delivering:
- in the Diploma in Law program, if you are enrolled as a student-at-law; or
- in the Uniform Legal Profession Admission scheme, if you are applying to be admitted as a lawyer, a public notary, or to have your legal qualifications assessed.
Any personal and health information which is collected through the CRM System will be available to the Board. The CRM System is operated with the assistance of Information and Technology (IT) staff at the Department of Communities & Justice (DCJ).
If you are enrolled as a student-at-law, the Board will share information with the Law Extension Committee of the Senate of the University of Sydney (the Committee) to facilitate your registration and participation in the program of tuition offered by the Committee.
Only authorised personnel within the Board, the Committee and DCJ will have access to your information. Your information will be stored securely and will be disposed of when it is no longer necessary for the Board to retain it for a lawful purpose.
The information will also be used and disclosed to meet the legal responsibilities of the Board, in emergencies, or as otherwise required or authorised by law.
Except as required by law, the provision of personal and health information to the Board is voluntary. However, if you do not provide some of the information requested, there may be difficulties administering your application.
We acknowledge Aboriginal people as the First Nations Peoples of NSW and pay our respects to Elders past, present, and future.
Informed by lessons of the past, Department of Communities and Justice is improving how we work with Aboriginal people and communities. We listen and learn from the knowledge, strength and resilience of Stolen Generations Survivors, Aboriginal Elders and Aboriginal communities.
You can access our apology to the Stolen Generations.
