PRIVAAS is the Privacy and Security by Design (PSbD), Inc’s proprietary Privacy Management Tool.
​
PRIVAAS is a global software solution designed to ease privacy compliance pains. It was launched in 2022 and created by the Philippines’ First Privacy Commissioner, Raymund Enriquez Liboro, together with a team of Singapore -based engineers, in line with the vision and mission of the PSbD.
​
PRIVAAS is shaped by Commissioner Liboro’s obsession with making PRIVACY as pain-free as possible for governments, data controllers, and processors. In 2017 he created the Philippines Privacy toolkit to guide PICs, PIPs, and Data Protection Officers (DPOs) through complying with the law and building an organizational culture protecting individuals' privacy rights.
​
He created and popularized the Five Pillars of Data Privacy Accountability and Compliance. This simple yet comprehensive framework became the guide for thousands of data protection officers in the Philippines and was adopted by other jurisdictions. The pillars advocated the following: 1) Commit to comply- appoint a DPO; 2) Know your risks-conduct a privacy impact assessment; 3) Be accountable- create a privacy management program and privacy manual; 4) Demonstrate your compliance- implement data protection measures and; 5) be prepared for a breach. These five (5) pillars became the foundation for the Philippines' and other jurisdictions’ approach to data protection.
​
In 2018, Commissioner Liboro was voted to the exclusive 5-member executive committee of the International Conference of Data Protection and Privacy Commissioner or the ICDPPC. The ICDPPC, later renamed the Global Privacy Assembly, is the worldwide body on data privacy composed of 134 member jurisdictions.
​
Because of his risk mitigation and management expertise, Commissioner Liboro was chosen to lead and chair the Global Privacy Assembly's COVID-19 Taskforce, intended to create a venue for collaboration among jurisdictions and organizations and address the emerging privacy issues posed by the spread of the COVID-19 virus worldwide.
In 2019, he chaired the first ASEAN (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) Data Protection and Privacy Forum. In addition, he became the host chair of the Asia Pacific Privacy Authorities Forum or the APPA.
​
PRIVAAS is a proprietary cloud-based tool designed with the user in mind. PRIVAAS offers an end-to-end solution focusing on personal data, risks, user convenience, and management visibility over its processes.
