Annual Report

Promoting Awareness

Raising awareness of and promoting compliance with the" PD(P)O within the community have always been key" working tasks for the PCPD.

In terms of heightening such awareness, the PCPD has" progressively stepped up the goal, providing in-depth" knowledge about the interpretation and application of the" PD(P)O in everyday life.

Having been in force for more than seven years in Hong" Kong, the concept of privacy has been instilled in the" public mindset.

The increasing number of enquiry and complaint cases" indicates society's rising levels of consciousness of" personal data privacy rights. To enable a better grasp of" the application of the provisions of the law, the PCPD has" organized new types of promotional activities to provoke" profound public reflection, particularly among Hong" Kong's younger generation. As it was stressed in last" year's report, young people play a vital role in shaping" our society's future. The PCPD recognizes the importance" of promoting privacy as a societal norm and our ultimate" goal is to build a society in which there is mutual respect" for the privacy rights of others.
