The Personal Data Protection Commission (PDPC) was established on 2nd January 2013 to administer and enforce the Personal Data Protection Act 2012 (PDPA). It serves as Singapore’s main authority in matters relating to personal data protection.

In administering and enforcing the PDPA, PDPC aims to balance the need to protect individuals’ personal data and the needs of organisations to use the data for legitimate purposes.

MODETTI® Data Protection Officer (DPO) services

Under the Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA), organisations are required to designate at least one individual as the organisation’s DPO, and making the DPO’s business contact information (BCI) publicly available.

An organisation may appoint one or a team of persons to be its DPO. Organisations with manpower or capability constraints can also consider outsourcing parts of the DPO function to service providers.

While the PDPC does not prescribe or specify the academic qualifications and experience of your DPO, the appointee should have a clear set of practical guidelines for the management.

MODETTI® Data Protection Officer services are on an outsourced basis, available since 2018 starting with select corporation clients in different industries.

We focus on practical, practisable processes tailored for individual clients.

Textbook theories do not apply and by our good experience, we help guide companies with simple and effective workflow.

There is the need for compliance, data protection and privacy; and to balance the operational costs without importing excessive processes.

We do that just fine.
