Privacy Awareness Week 2019 (PAW 2019)
Symposium on “Data Ethics in Action”

(Closing date for enrolment: 3 May 2019)



You are cordially invited to join the Symposium on “Data Ethics in Action” which is the flagship event of DPOC’s new membership year 2019-20.

In today’s digital age, data is captured and analysed through a collection of infrastructure, analytics and applications. While we are all well aware of the enormous benefits brought by big data analytics, artificial intelligence and machine learning, they also pose unprecedented challenges to the existing regulatory framework in data protection, emerging from uninformed behavioural tracking or profiling, data breach, electronic surveillance and interception.

The PCPD strongly believes that in addition to compliance with the legislation, organisations should also be held to a higher ethical standard that meets the stakeholders’ expectations. Data ethics and stewardship can therefore bridge the gap between legal requirements and stakeholders’ expectations.

Speakers from relevant professions and industries will share their insights and experience concerning how their organisations develop their Privacy Management Programme and adopt data ethics to give individuals more confidence that their interests in data privacy are being protected and nurture a good privacy culture in our society.
