Law centre — boundary standardAustralia

Australia's law is the gate.

Open client record

The eSafety Commissioner has binding power where the facts fit. The public page names the standard; the working review stays sealed.

If you found this page in the worst week of your life, you do not need to expose more than necessary. You need the right boundary preserved quietly.

PUBLIC LAW VISIBLECLIENT RECORD SEALEDPUBLIC STANDARD ONLY

Law visible / answer sealed

The statute is public. The application stays sealed.

A legal page should create confidence without handing out the case-specific answer. Public statute pages show authority, sources, and limits. The client record carries the written boundary, timing context, and client receipt.

SECTION 03 — BOUNDARY STANDARDS

What can be named publicly — and what stays sealed.

Online Safety Act 2021 — eSafety removal notices (ss.77–79)

Binding notices for eligible non-consensual intimate-image matters, with a 24-hour compliance window once served.

Online Safety Act 2021 s.75

Posting — or threatening to post — an intimate image without consent is a civil contravention enforced by eSafety; separate criminal offences exist federally and by state.

Provider NCII policies

Non-consensual-image standards named publicly only at the standard level.

Privacy Act 1988 & fallback labels

Australia has no general 'right to be forgotten'; limited public-facing work stays labeled as fallback.

The official boundaries stay visible. The working boundary and timing context stay in the client record.

MANDATORY REFERRALMINORS — NEVER A COMMERCIAL CASE

If this involves someone under 18

We work with adults (18+) only. If intimate images of someone under 18 are involved, report it to the Australian Centre to Counter Child Exploitation (ACCCE), led by the Australian Federal Police, at accce.gov.au/report; you can also report to the eSafety Commissioner at esafety.gov.au/report. Youth can call Kids Helpline on 1800 55 1800. Do not send the content to anyone — including us.

Report to the ACCCEReport to eSafety

Adults (18+) only · content involving anyone under 18 is reported to the ACCCE (AFP) & eSafety
