OVERVIEW

Data privacy is important. Processing of personal information without regard for privacy can result in very real consequences such as a person’s loss of trust in an organization, a person’s loss of self-determination and self-autonomy, exclusion, stigmatization, power imbalance, and even physical harm.

The Data Privacy Act of 2012 (DPA) elevates the right to privacy as a fundamental human right. At the end of this course, you will have a strong grasp of the fundamentals of this Act especially the kind of activities considered as processing under the DPA, what constitutes personal and sensitive personal information, the most appropriate lawful criteria of processing this information, and the role of the entities involved.
