The Hong Kong Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance stipulates that a data user may only disclose a person’s personal information to a third party for purposes that are permitted under the law. However, a data user must first inform the individual of what is the purpose of the disclosure and obtain the consent of the individual to do so. In addition, the PDPO stipulates that a data user must record the purpose of the disclosure.
Aside from the legal framework, organizations need to develop a clear vision for building a governance program that aligns with business goals and delivers a positive return on data. This vision becomes the basis for policies that support, sponsor and steward data governance. It should also include the actual people, technologies and processes needed to support these objectives.
As a leading regional internet exchange and one of Asia’s carrier-dense network hubs, Hong Kong offers a unique business ecosystem for many companies to connect their data centers with multiple interconnection options.
