2024年，新加坡个人数据保护委员会（Personal Data Protection Commission，“PDPC”）根据《个人数据保护法》（PDPA）强制要求所有新加坡公司必须在 2024 年 9 月 30 日之前 指定至少一名数据保护官（Data Protection Officer，“DPO”），以监督公司内部的数据保护职责并确保遵守《个人数据保护法》。

Register Your Data Protection Officer (DPO)

In compliance with the Personal Data Protection Act 2012, an organisation must designate at least one DPO and the DPO’s contact information must be made available to the public.

Responsibilities of the DPO

The responsibilities of a DPO include, but are not limited to:

• Ensuring PDPA Compliance
• Fostering a Data Protection Culture
• Efficient Handling of Data Inquiries
• Alert Management on Personal Data Risks
• Liaise with PDPC when required

The DPO function may be a dedicated responsibility or added to an existing role in the organisation. The appointed DPO may also delegate certain responsibilities to other officers. Organisations with manpower constraints may outsource operational aspects of the DPO function to a service provider.
