CPIT Webinar 6:

"Understanding the Data Privacy Act of 2012"

The United States Agency for International Development’s (USAID) Better Access and Connectivity (BEACON) Project, in partnership with the Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) invites you to join and learn about the Data Privacy Act of 2012.

Republic Act No. 10173, or the Data Privacy Act of 2012, is the Philippines’ legal basis for the governance of the privacy of personal data. It is a law that aims to address issues and crimes of the 21st century, in particular, it (1) protects the privacy of individuals while ensuring the free flow of information to promote innovation and growth; (2) regulates the collection, recording, organization, storage, updating or modification, retrieval, consultation, use, consolidation, blocking, erasure, or destruction of personal data; and (3) ensures that the Philippines complies with international standards set for data protection through the National Privacy Commission (NPC).

Subject matter experts from the National Privacy Commission (NPC), the National Association of Data Protection Officers of the Philippines (NADPOP), and MERALCO will be speaking in this webinar.

This session aims to:

-Promote public awareness and compliance with Republic Act No. 10173 (Data Privacy Act of 2012) as an essential component of personal and organizational cybersecurity.

-Enhance the knowledge and skills of cybersecurity practitioners in the data protection domain.

The CPIT is completely FREE.

Government participants will receive a training completion certificate for each webinar completed.
