Privacy Awareness Week (PAW) is an annual event to raise awareness of privacy issues and the importance of protecting personal information.

We run PAW in conjunction with state and territory privacy regulators and the Asia Pacific Privacy Authorities forum.

For PAW 2025 (16 to 22 June) we are asking people, organisations and government agencies to get serious about privacy by shouting from the rooftops about our campaign theme 'Privacy – it’s everyone’s business’.
