Data Protection in the Practical Context โ Strategies and Techniques provides a detailed study of the law, practice and policy of personal data protection law in Singapore.

All concepts are thoroughly explained and analysed in depth and in an accessible manner, with emphasis on the meaning and operation of all the concepts and sections of the legislation and how they interact with each other in law and in practice.
