Personal Data Protection


Personal Data Protection

In today’s fast-moving digital world, organisations are collecting more data today than a decade ago. The ability to utilise such data is no longer a competitive edge, but a core business competency. The managing of data, in particular personal data is important, as a prudent data protection strategy build trust with stakeholders like your customers, employees and trading partners.

Under the Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA), organisations are required to develop and implement policies and practices to meet their personal data protection obligations. Designating at least one individual as the organisations’ DPO, and making available the DPO’s business contact information (BCI), which is mandatory under the PDPA, will help your organisations along this journey.

The Personal Data Protection Commission (PDPC) collaborated with the Accounting and Corporate Regulatory Authority (ACRA) to develop an eService to enable business entities registered with ACRA to register and update their DPO’s BCI via ACRA’s BIzfile+ portal using their CorpPass accounts.

With this collaboration, the PDPC will no longer accept registrations and updates of DPO BCI via its web-forms. DPOs of organisations not registered with ACRA (e.g. Societies) may continue to register with the PDPC via the PDPC web-form.
