TVING (CEO Choi Ju-hee) has launched privacy protection training for all employees to raise awareness and strengthen practical capabilities in handling personal information. The company plans not only to conduct training but also to improve systems and processes while carrying out continuous inspections, aiming to internalize privacy protection principles across all operations.

During the training held on the 14th, Yoon Jong-soo, a partner lawyer at Kwangjang Law Firm (Yoo) who previously served as an executive director of the Personal Information Protection Association, delivered a lecture titled "Increasing Risks of Personal Data Breaches and Changes in Regulatory Paradigms and Response Strategies." The session covered changes in the personal information protection environment, the importance of establishing proactive prevention systems, directions for personal data protection in the AI era, and key points employees must note during their work processes.

In particular, the training emphasized the importance of managing the entire data lifecycle—from creation and collection to usage, storage, and disposal—in a systematic manner, and shared practical implementation measures resulting from improvements in related systems and processes. The session also introduced methods to strengthen management standards throughout all stages of personal information handling, including reviewing retention periods and processing purposes, and timely disposal of unnecessary personal data.

The importance of "Privacy by Design," which applies privacy protection principles from the service planning and development stages, was also highlighted. The approach stresses that personal information protection should not be viewed merely as a post-launch response task but must be considered during the planning and design phases, with privacy principles reflected throughout the entire service lifecycle.

Partner lawyer Yoon Jong-soo emphasized, "Personal information protection is not a reactive measure after service launch but a fundamental principle that must be considered from the planning stage. It is crucial to establish systems that ensure inspections and protective measures for personal data processing are carried out throughout all stages of the service."

TVING plans to continuously strengthen related training and programs starting with this session, enabling employees to practically apply privacy protection principles in their daily work. The company also intends to review management systems covering all stages of personal information handling and continuously improve systems and processes, ensuring that privacy protection becomes a shared operational principle practiced by all members rather than being confined to specific departments.

Ko Min-seok, TVING's Vice President of Human Resources, stated, "Personal information protection is a fundamental principle that every member must responsibly practice in their respective roles. We will continuously review and supplement relevant standards and procedures alongside training, ensuring that members can apply the importance and responsibility of personal data handling to their work."
