The Office of the Data Protection Commissioner (ODPC) approved an additional 505 data handlers over the three months ending August. This means there are now 2,808 approved data handlers, up from 2,303 at the close of May.

The registration of data handlers commenced on July 14 last year after the Parliament enacted regulations requiring all entities handling personal information to register as data processors and controllers.
