Privacy notice
We are authorised by the Taxation Administration Act 1953 and the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 to ask for the information on this form. We will use this information to monitor and regulate self-managed superannuation funds (SMSFs). If we do not collect this information, you may not meet your reporting obligations and SMSF member benefits may be placed at risk.
We are authorised by the Taxation Administration Act 1953 to request tax file numbers (TFNs). We will use the TFN to identify the SMSF in our records. It is not an offence not to provide the TFN. However, if you do not provide the TFN, we may not be able to identify the SMSF you have reported.
If the SMSF has an Australian Business Number, some information on this form is collected for the purpose of the A New Tax System (Australian Business Number) Act 1999. This information may be used to update the SMSF’s details on the Australian Business Register (ABR).
Where authorised by law, we may give this information to other government departments and agencies, including:
- State and Federal Police
- Australian Securities & Investment Commission
- Australian Prudential Regulation Authority
- Australian Bureau of Statistics
- Reserve Bank of Australia.
Our privacy policy contains important information about your privacy, including information about how you can access and seek correction of information we hold about you, how to make a complaint if you think we have breached the Australian Privacy Principles and how we will deal with any privacy complaints.
