Information and Toolkits to keep you up to date
We help marketers keep up with what’s going on with new and developing laws, inquiries and reports into our industry. ADMA has both member-only and publicly available content to help marketers comply with Australian and international regulations.
Our work includes news stories, content, webinars, masterclasses and training courses to keep the data-driven marketing community up to date with compliance issues. Our regulatory working group advocates on behalf of data-driven marketers to governments and regulators like the OAIC or ACCC. Whether it’s topics like privacy, data handling, running trade promotions, best practices for making claims when advertising or marketing or understanding changing technology, we’re the industry body that keeps you informed.
As always, it’s prudent to seek legal advice for your specific business, industry and marketing project. The best brands and businesses go beyond what is legal to do what is right.

The Government will appoint a standalone Privacy Commissioner to deal with the growing threats to data security and the increasing volume and complexity of privacy issues.

Earlier this year, the Attorney General's Department released its review of the Privacy Act. This review outlined 116 proposals - many of which ADMA supports, there are some that could fundamentally change the data-driven marketing and advertising industry as a whole. ADMA’s submission outlines positions that our members from across the data-driven marketing industry have expressed to us. To read ADMA's submission, click here.
