Honing personal data protection
Proposed changes to the law take into consideration the interests of individuals and organisations, and this includes consumers and businesses.
THERE are evolving modes of collection and legitimate uses of personal data that should be considered in order to ensure that Singapore's data protection laws are practical and up to date. That is the message coming from the Personal Data Protection Commission (PDPC) in proposed amendments to the Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA).
The proposed changes take into consideration the interests of individuals and organisations, and this includes consumers and businesses. This is in line with the objective of the Act, which sets a reasonable standard for compliance by the latter.
The first of two main proposed amendments will clearly be beneficial to businesses.
