KEY RISK: s26 CROSS-BORDER

Your survey indicates data transfer to Malaysia. Under PDPA section 26, you must ensure comparable protection in the receiving country. This affects all processes using cloud storage providers (AWS, GCP, Azure) if data is processed or stored on Malaysian servers. Review each process that uses cloud storage and confirm the actual data residency.

KEY RISK: NRIC COLLECTION

7 of your 13 processes involve NRIC data. Under PDPA section 18, NRIC collection requires explicit consent โ€” deemed consent is NOT sufficient. Ensure all NRIC collection points have clear, specific consent mechanisms. This is Singapore's #1 PDPA enforcement trigger.
