The Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data, Ms Ada CHUNG Lai-ling, said, “As AI and digital technologies become increasingly integrated into our daily lives, it is crucial to provide guidance to students on the protection of personal data privacy and the safe use of new technology from an early age. Through the Storybook, the PCPD wishes to present these ideas in a simple, accessible and engaging way, with a view to making primary school students aware of the need to protect personal data privacy, and laying a solid foundation for them to navigate the digital world safely.”

The Storybook adopts a virtual‑reality game adventure as its main storyline. Following the journeys of three primary school students exploring the “AI labyrinth”, the Storybook introduces a range of themes relating to the protection of personal data privacy, including the proper use of AI, safe use of social media, appropriate handling of and response to cyberbullying, as well as protecting personal accounts and respecting others’ privacy. The Storybook also includes post‑reading activities to facilitate extended learning in schools, guiding students to adopt good practice in protecting personal data privacy, both in and beyond classrooms, thereby strengthening their judgement and resilience in the digital environment.
