ACMA orders Tabcorp to pay AU$4.0m for spam breaches

Enforcement & compliance

Australia’s ACMA ordered Tabcorp to pay AU$4.0 million for breaching spam laws in marketing messages to VIP programme customers. The regulator said the messages lacked unsubscribe options or adequate sender details, and some were sent without consent. Tabcorp also entered a three-year court-enforceable undertaking covering an independent review, system improvements, audits, staff training and regular reporting.

The penalty and undertaking require Tabcorp to review and strengthen its direct marketing controls.
