Conclusion
In July 12th, it was delighted to invite non-privacy professionals who work on the digital ID to deploy with their products and services.
Although we often discuss the new legal transition and compliances until now among privacy community, we found it becomes more important to prioritize the service and business design as well as following up the new legislative trend.
Especially, does not only rely on legal experts, but also includes the feedback from business practitioners to look at this topic with the bird’s eyes.
