The Invitation to the 3rd Regular Online Session

 

“DPOs’ expected roles and self-development”

                                        

It is our pleasure to invite you to join the above referenced session as an observer for free of charge.

 

In July 29, Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry of Japan (“METI”) released for a public comment “the Guidebook Ver. 1.0 for Privacy Governance of DX Corporations” which outlines the designation, and authority and responsibility of the newly defined “Privacy Protection Officer” as one of the three major requirements for strengthening the privacy governance of the DX corporations. Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications of Japan (“MIC”) which governs “Guidelines on Protection of Personal Information in Telecommunication Industry” have long paid attention to the role of DPO. Also, in this spring Mr. Junichi Ishii, Director of Personal Information Protection Commission of Japan (“PPC”) joined and completed the DPO program of the Maastricht University to experience the established methods of the DPOs’ self-development. In this session, the key officials directly involved in such efforts by METI, MIC and PPC will give us the presentations and some insights.

 

In addition, the directors and advisers of the Association such as Mr. Omer Tene, Vice President and Chief Knowledge Officer of the International Association of Privacy Professionals (“IAPP”), a world leading privacy protection advocate will comment on the DPOs’ expected roles and self-development from their own perspectives.

 

This session is open to everyone who is interested in the activities of the Association.  In particular, we would cordially invite any non-Japanese data protection specialists to this Session so that we can share Japanese data protection specialists’ perspectives with them.
