MANILA - The National Privacy Commission has urged the public to dispose shipping labels properly amid concerns that customers' personal data may be used improperly following a surge in online shopping.

"Shipping labels contain details such as name, address and contact number. If not disposed properly, puwedeng mapunta sa o magamit ng ibang tao ang data mo ," the country's privacy watchdog wrote on Facebook Tuesday. The independent agency, which is mandated to promote a culture that protects the data privacy rights of the public, said details on the shipping labels on parcels could be covered by a permanent marker. Shipping labels, the NPC said, can also be used as scratch paper or food wrapper.

"Kaya sa next unboxing, think before you dispose! Have a safe online Christmas shopping!" the agency said.
