Are there any laws in Australia that would prevent a doorbell like this being used?
Where it applies - Federal & ACT government entities , companies providing health services and companies with annual revenue greater than $3 million. Similar state law applies to state government entities. Also, it doesn’t apply to employees of the organization.
