The Hong Kong Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance (Cap 486, enacted 1996, significantly amended 2012 and 2021) regulates the collection, use, storage, and transfer of personal data. The Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data (PCPD) oversees compliance. The 2021 amendment criminalised doxxing. Establishes six Data Protection Principles (DPPs) governing the lifecycle of personal data. The PCPD has enhanced enforcement powers including criminal prosecution for doxxing.
