Personal Data Protection Commission (PDPC)

The Personal Data Protection Commission (PDPC), established in 2013, is Singapore’s central authority for administering the Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA) 2012.

With a focus on addressing public concerns related to the collection, use, and disclosure of personal data, PDPA ensures a baseline standard for personal data protection in Singapore. This involves implementing policies and issuing advisory guidelines to help organizations practice responsible data use and sharing. Additionally, it undertakes public and sector-specific outreach activities to educate both organizations and individuals on their roles and responsibilities in safeguarding personal data.

The PDPA's objective is to build trust between businesses and consumers and enhance Singapore’s competitiveness as a trusted, world-class business hub. For further details, please visit www.pdpc.gov.sg.
