Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) covers 47.5% of APEC Cross-Border Privacy Rules (CBPR) System
28 of the 59 controls in APEC Cross-Border Privacy Rules (CBPR) System are already satisfied by evidence you collected for Australian Privacy Principles (APPs). 31 are genuine gaps. Every claim below was judged against both control sets and then argued against; the ones that did not survive are published further down with the reason each failed.
This number is directional. It says how much of APEC Cross-Border Privacy Rules (CBPR) System your Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) evidence satisfies. The reverse pair is a different number, often very different, because a security standard has enormous depth for access control and almost none for lawful basis or data subject rights.
32 candidate mappings were examined and 0 were removed. Signed off 2026-08-20, review level machine verified. Mappings were judged by Claude Code rather than read line by line by a practitioner. Every claim shows its reasoning so you can check it. Ask and a practitioner will review this pair.
Where the gaps are
Coverage is never evenly spread. A source standard usually satisfies one part of a target almost completely and barely touches another, and which part is which is the thing worth knowing before you plan the work.
Theme level, not control level, deliberately. The per-control list of what is evidenced and what is a gap is the report itself, so publishing it here would be publishing the thing being sold.
Claims that held
A sample. Each one names the control whose evidence does the work, the control it satisfies, and why.
Fixes the matters that must be notified at the point of collection.
Requires a clearly expressed and current privacy policy describing how information is handled.
Only information reasonably necessary for the entity functions may be collected.
Use or disclosure confined to the primary purpose or a permitted secondary purpose.
Personal information must be managed in an open and transparent way by the entity.
A simple means to opt out must be provided where direct marketing is used.
Reasonable steps must keep information accurate, up to date and complete.
Reasonable steps must protect information from misuse, interference, loss and unauthorised access.
Claims that did not hold
Nothing proposed for this pair was rejected in review. That is unusual and worth knowing rather than hiding: it means the candidate set was small and every candidate held.
The full report
Everything above is a sample. The report is every evidenced control and every gap, with the reasoning and the source document behind each one, in a form you can hand to an assessor. $299, emailed immediately.
