Document background
An Authorization Letter To Disclose Information is a crucial document in Singapore's data protection framework, particularly under the Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA). This document is necessary when an individual needs to authorize a third party to access or receive their personal or confidential information. It's commonly used in healthcare, financial, educational, and professional contexts where privacy laws strictly regulate information sharing. The letter must clearly specify the scope of authorization, temporal limitations, and intended use of the information while incorporating appropriate safeguards to protect the data subject's rights under Singapore law.
