Data Privacy is critical to the survival of businesses. Customers want to know that their data and personal information are safe and that companies do everything to ensure their data stays private. This is where RA 10173 or the Data Privacy Act of 2012 comes in, ‘to protect the fundamental human right of privacy, of communication while ensuring free flow of information to promote innovation and growth.’


It is crucial that everyone in the company, no matter their roles, understand the basic principles of RA 10173 and data privacy. This is the goal of VLC’s Data Privacy Awareness Certification Seminar happening on September 28.
