About the Webinar

This Power Pair comprises 2 of our most popular webinars from 2023 for charities and not-for-profit organisations.

Webinar 1:  Protecting Personal Information and Managing Privacy Risk

Charities and NFPs collect and hold a significant amount of personal information, some of which is very sensitive. The legislative requirements for the collection and disclosure of personal information are complex, and the obligations organisations have to keep information secure are increasingly onerous. This session provides an overview of the legal and practical issues in the management of personal information, including:

  • The data protection obligations in the Privacy Act and how they apply to charities and NFPs
  • What personal information can be requested and when?
  • How should personal information be stored?
  • What should be in your data breach policy and immediate steps to take following a breach
  • Crisis management and communication strategies in the event of a breach
  • Consequences of data breaches - not just financial
  • Board duties and liability for information management and security

Webinar 2: Regulatory Risks and Rewards for Charities Conducting For-Profit Activities

The diversification of charities from their traditional operations into commercial or profitable activities which provide funds for their core work is now an accepted practice, but does require careful planning and structuring to avoid non-compliance with the strict regulations. This session will explore how charities can successfully navigate a move to for-profit activities without risking the ire of the regulators, including:

  • Re-visiting the meaning of “charitable purpose”
  • How can a for-profit activity be considered charitable?
  • Checking the constitution for limitations
  • Cases and examples including Commissioner of Taxation v Word Investments Limited [2008] HCA 55; Commissioner of Taxation v Hunger Project Australia [2014] FCAFC 69; YWCA Australia v Chief Commissioner of State Revenue [2020] NSWSC 1798
  • The ACNC’s view of when and how a charity can undertake for-profit activities
  • Structuring issues – is a separate entity necessary?
  • Taxation and financial considerations
  • Protecting status and covering all bases
  • Key risks and how to manage them
