For years, business advocated for a Data Privacy Law. We finally got it. Then we advocated for the implementation of the law. It eventually happened with the establishment of the National Privacy Commission (NPC). The NPC then drafted the Implementing Rules and Regulations, which will take full effect by September this year.
Are we happy? Yes and no.
Yes – because we wanted private data to be protected and we wanted to offer that protection in the Philippines which is good for companies doing international business and are processing data.
No – the implementation of the Law is complicated, opens doors to nuisance legal action, requires the employment of data privacy officers, and makes company executives criminally liable for data privacy breaches.
Does the Law and its IRR affect the Philippines as a destination for data processing, data mining and data analytics?
This workshop will discuss the complex situation, explain the rules and will outline the implementation process.
Why should the C-Level attend with its implementers?
