Document background
A Website Privacy Notice is a fundamental legal requirement for any organization operating a website that collects personal information from users in the Philippines. This document is mandated by the Data Privacy Act of 2012 and must be prominently displayed on the website. It serves multiple purposes: ensuring legal compliance, building trust with users, and providing transparency about data processing activities. The notice must be written in clear, understandable language while covering all required elements under Philippine law, including data collection methods, processing purposes, sharing practices, security measures, and user rights. It should be regularly reviewed and updated to reflect changes in data practices or regulatory requirements.
