Privacy notice – Minerals resource rent tax

We are authorised by the Taxation Administration Act 1953 to ask you to provide a tax file number (TFN). We use TFNs to identify entities in our records. It is not an offence not to provide a TFN, but if you don't provide a TFN there may be a delay processing the Minerals resource rent tax (MRRT) form.

We are also authorised by the Minerals Resource Rent Tax Act 2012 to ask for other information. We need this information to help us to administer tax laws. If you don't provide the required information, there could be a delay processing the form.

Where authorised by law, we may give information to other government departments and agencies, including:

• law enforcement agencies such as state and federal police
• the Australian Bureau of Statistics
• the Reserve Bank of Australia.

We may also provide entity information to treaty partners overseas under international tax agreements.

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 you may complain about a breach of the Australian Privacy Principles
• how we will deal with any privacy complaint.
