Republic Act 10173
Republic Act No. 10173, also known as the Data Privacy Act of
2012 (DPA), is a law in the Philippines that protects the
fundamental right to privacy of individuals in relation to their
personal information. It aims to ensure the security and
confidentiality of personal information in information and
communications systems, both in the government and the
private sector.
The DPA has the following salient features:
It establishes the National Privacy Commission (NPC), which

is responsible for implementing the law and ensuring
compliance by government agencies and private
organizations.
It requires government agencies and private organizations to

obtain the consent of individuals before collecting,
processing, or using their personal information.
It prohibits the processing of sensitive personal information

without the consent of the individual, except in certain
limited circumstances.
It requires government agencies and private organizations to
take reasonable security measures to protect personal
information from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, or
destruction.
It gives individuals the right to access, correct, and erase

their personal information.
It gives individuals the right to file complaints with the NPC if

their personal information is mishandled.
The DPA has several advantages, including:
It helps to protect individuals from identity theft, fraud, and

other privacy violations.
It promotes trust and confidence in the use of information

and communications technologies.
It encourages innovation and economic growth by creating a

more secure environment for the collection, processing, and
use of personal information.
The DPA has also faced some issues, such as:
Lack of awareness of the law among individuals and

organizations.
Limited resources of the NPC to enforce the law.
Inadequate penalties for violations of the law.
The DPA is still a relatively new law, and it is still being

implemented. However, it is an important step towards
protecting the privacy of individuals in the Philippines.
Here are some of the implementations of the DPA:
The NPC has issued a number of guidelines and regulations to

help organizations comply with the law.
The NPC has conducted training and awareness sessions on

the DPA for government agencies and private organizations.
The NPC has received and investigated a number of

complaints about violations of the DPA.
