What is Data Hong Kong?
Data hk is an online portal that provides access to open data. It also offers a variety of tools and services for analysis. Its goal is to empower researchers with the tools and resources they need to analyse and understand complex datasets. The data is presented in a format that is easily understood and interpreted by anyone. It can be displayed as line graphs, cross sectional plots or on maps.
In addition, the data hk portal provides a platform for public engagement and collaboration on a range of policy issues. It also supports the development of a community of practice for the sharing and discussion of best practices in the field of data analytics.
The PDPO requires that a data user has a legal obligation to ensure that personal data is processed in accordance with the law. In the event of a breach, the data user can be penalised with a fine up to HK$500,000 or imprisonment for up to three years.
A key factor in determining the legality of the processing is whether it is necessary for the purpose for which it is collected. In addition, the law provides that personal data must be collected for a lawful purpose and must not be excessive in relation to that purpose.
