Robocash Finance Corp., a SEC-licensed company offering short-term consumer lending in the Philippines, attended the certification program for Data Protection Officers (DPOs) on Accountability, Compliance, and Ethics (ACE) held by the National Privacy Commission (NPC) during the 52nd Asia Pacific Privacy Authorities (APPA) Forum. Conducted on December 2-4, 2019 in Cebu, Philippines, the event also covered discussions on security measures and breach management, as well as best practices in regulatory compliance and initiatives from around the world.
Hosted for the first time in the Philippines, the 52nd edition of the APPA Forum took a closer look at the protection of privacy and data of customers, existing opportunities and challenges arising with growing digitization. As the Philippine Privacy Commissioner Raymund Enriquez Liboro mentioned in his opening remarks, efficient data protection would not only support economic growth but also ensure a safe and progressive future for the next generations.
