Document background
The Privacy Policy Notice is a mandatory document required under the Philippines Data Privacy Act of 2012 for any organization that processes personal information. It serves as a fundamental transparency tool that organizations must provide to data subjects, explaining how their personal data is collected, processed, and protected. The document must be readily available, written in clear language, and contain specific disclosures required by Philippine law. Organizations must ensure their Privacy Policy Notice reflects current data handling practices and is updated whenever significant changes occur in their data processing activities. This document is particularly crucial given the increasing focus on data protection in the Philippines and the National Privacy Commission's active enforcement of privacy regulations.
