Hong Kong, 13 June 2025: Compliance with personal data privacy rules was the theme of a talk given by our Associate Anne Young to staff at Sacred Heart Canossian School (Private Section) in Central.
The presentation highlighted key aspects of the Personal Data (Privacy} Ordinance and offered guidance on how information should be collected, processed, stored and shared.
“There is increasing demand from schools to learn about this topic. Citizens have become more aware of their rights regarding privacy and parents are eager to protect their children in this regard,” says Anne.
“More schools are keen to receive clear guidance for proper compliance to avoid unnecessary complaints that arise from a lack of understanding about the relevant legislation. By addressing these concerns, we aim to provide teachers and administrative staff with the necessary knowledge to navigate these issues effectively.”
Anne’s practice areas include civil litigation with a focus on insurance and personal injury claims in the education sector. Her talk was part of BC&C’s community outreach programme to mark our firm’s 40th anniversary.
