A recent discussion paper explores possible changes to the definition of personal data. In particular, it suggests that the current requirement that a data set must concern an identifiable individual may be amended to include a broader concept of ‘identifiable’ information. If implemented, this would cover a much wider range of processing activities and increase compliance requirements for businesses that use data-related technologies.
The use of personal data in direct marketing without the consent of the data subject continues to be a significant focus for investigation and enforcement action by the Privacy Commissioner’s office. For example, an estate agent was convicted in 2021 of failing to comply with a data subject’s request not to use their personal data for direct marketing.
Our Hong Kong data centers are located in multiple distinct locations around the city. Each facility offers a connected campus with diverse power and cooling to support geographically distributed high-availability deployments. We also offer a variety of network on-ramps to the region’s largest cloud providers and can provide liquid cooling for your equipment. This enables you to achieve the best possible performance and scale for your application.
