- Implement consent records plus data-subject access and deletion workflows.
- Encrypt data in transit and at rest; restrict and log administrative access.

For clients in Vietnam we usually host on Singapore, Mumbai or Sydney cloud regions. The choice balances latency for local users, Decree 13/2023 and Personal Data Protection Law requirements on where personal data may be stored or transferred, and any sector rules your regulator sets. Backups and disaster-recovery copies follow the same residency decision.
