Reminder: Data.gov.au is a beta product

Please be mindful that Data.gov.au is a beta product. Whilst every effort is made to maintain appropriate levels of security and maintain confidentiality, data custodians should consider their risk profile before loading data. As a beta product Data.gov.au aims to meet the minimum needs of users, our focus has been on ensuring a secure environment for data to be loaded.

Custodians are also reminded that they have responsibility for the confidentiality of the data they load to Data.gov.au. Once loaded, there are no checks undertaken by the platform on datasets to ensure there is no personal information or confidentiality rules are maintained.

At this time there are no plans to uplift Data.gov.au out of the beta product. If this changes in the future, a Discovery project was undertaken in 2022 that can provide the basis for improvements. If you would like a copy, please contact support@data.gov.au.
