“Keep
your personal information preciously from your childhood” -
PIPC, 2020 Privacy Campaign (from Oct. 7 to
Dec. 2) - - Exercise your privacy right in everyday life and
practice to protect your personal information -
□
Amid the promotion of digitalization due to the Covid-19 crisis, a
practice culture campaign is launched to actively manage and protect
one's personal information in everyday life.
□
The Personal Information Protection Commission (PIPC, Chairman Yoon
Jong In) and the Korea Internet & Security Agency will hold an
eight-week 「Campaign
to promote personal information」
from Oct. 7 to Dec. 2 under the
theme "In On-tact era! How to protect your personal
information" *On-tack stands for “Online” and “Non-tact”
○ The campaign has been carried out by the Korea
Comunications Commission since 2010 as a 「Internet
Privacy Campaign」 and
it will be held under a new name, theme, and method following the
launch of the integrated PIPC this year.
○ In particular,
this year, it will support children, teenagers, and the disabled, who
are considered vulnerable to digital technologies, while it has been
focusing almost exclusively on achieving the original purpose of
"improving awareness of privacy" so far.
□
The main content of the campaign is as follows.
○ First of
all, 'D.I.Y.(Do It Yourself) campaign' will be conducted, in which
the public engages directly from the decision-making stage of the
campaign.
- In the decision-making
session, people can vote for campaign slogans or events. - People
can learn the rules for protecting personal information in everyday
life by participating in events selected by themselves. * Utilizes
public participation channels such as 'Gwanghwamun 1st Street' and
'Personal Information Protection Portal (www.privacy.go.kr)'
○
Second, 'Children and Teenagers', the data subject of the future
generation, will be highlighted under a special theme. - Personal
information protection education contents (singing, dancing, videos,
and games), which the Green Umbrella's Foundation collaborates with,
will be developed and distributed for children and teenagers. - In
addition to children and teenagers, various online events are
organized for parents to participate.
○ Lastly, the campaign
will guide you through various privacy rules in 'online life' to
prepare for the post-Covid-19 era.
- As new ways of life, such
as remote classes and remote work, are spreading amid Covid-19,
various online events will guide the privacy rules and best practices
for cases.
□ Park Sang Hee, Secretary-General of the PIPC,
said, "W hope that this campaign will establish a culture that
people protect and manage their personal information on their own, we
will strengthen education and publicity so that people can
internalize their privacy sensitivity to protection personal
information, especially from childhood or adolescence."
