In addition to her current role as the Australian Privacy Commissioner, Carly has a Graduate Diploma in Legal Practice, A Masters in International Relations from the London School of Economics and Political Science and is the former Legal Director for Privacy International and most recently, the former Director of the Ada Lovelace Institute – an independent research institute with a mission to ensure data and AI work for people and society.

In this episode, we discuss the recent findings arising from the OAIC's Investigations into Bunning's use of Facial Recognition, what the OAIC believes should have been done differently, how they reached their findings and what needs to be done in future to ensure other businesses can avoid breaches of the Australian Privacy Principles when deploying facial recognition systems.
