The Office of the Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data (PCPD) announced on 1 December 2015 that it has commenced an investigation on a data breach incident of VTech Holdings Limited (VTech), a Hong Kong stock exchange listed supplier of children’s learning products that is based in Hong Kong. The scope of the data breach is unclear, but it is likely that data subjects other than Hong Kong residents are affected. It was reported that the attorneys-general in the US states of Connecticut and Illinois have also announced plans to conduct their own investigation into this security breach.
