    ACMA, Sender ID Register and SPAM Act specifics

    Australia is rolling out the SMS Sender ID Register, modelled on Singapore's SSIR. Unregistered alphanumeric senders are increasingly being filtered. New Zealand has lighter regulation but the same operational disciplines apply.

    • ACMA SMS Sender ID Register registration and renewal
    • SPAM Act 2003 (AU) and Unsolicited Electronic Messages Act 2007 (NZ) alignment
    • Industry code C661 alignment on consent and identification
    • Pre-registered backup sender IDs to absorb sudden filtering
    Compliance & data

    Privacy Act 1988 (AU) and Privacy Act 2020 (NZ)

    We operate as a service provider under the Australian Privacy Principles and the New Zealand Privacy Act 2020. Messaging metadata is treated as personal information with a 90-day default retention.

    • Australian Privacy Principles aligned processing
    • NZ Privacy Act 2020 IPP-compatible handling
    • OAIC and OPC reporting workflows for notifiable breaches
    • Audit-ready consent log per recipient

    • 24/7 escalation aligned to ANZ business hours
