ZTE Corporation (0763.HK / 000063.SZ), a major international provider of 
telecommunications, enterprise, and consumer technology solutions for the 
mobile internet, today announced that its human resource management activities 
have successfully passed the review by the British Standards Institute (BSI) 
and the company has obtained the ISO/IEC 27701:2019 PIMS (Privacy Information 
Management System) certificate in human resource management.

ISO/IEC 27701:2019 is currently one of the most authoritative privacy 
protection standards across the globe. Aiming to help organizations effectively 
protect and process the collected personal information, the standard provides 
strong support for organizations to meet the requirements of China's Personal 
Information Protection Law, the EU General Data Protection Regulation, as well 
as the data protection laws and regulations of other countries and regions.

The scope of this certification covers the human resource management activities 
in the charge of the Human Resources Dept. of ZTE Corporation, which include 
recruitment and allocation, compensation and benefits, cadre management, 
corporate culture, employee relations as well as multiple business fields such 
as the privacy protection for the human resource information system, 
application of laws and regulations, corporate information security, physical 
area security, and procurement management. 

The ISO/IEC 27701:2019 certificate epitomizes the recognition of ZTE's employee 
privacy protection efforts by international authorities, and the achievements 
made by the Human Resources Dept. of ZTE Corporation in the building and 
operation of the personal privacy management system.

"In human resource management activities, the Human Resources Dept. of ZTE 
Corporation needs to process a large amount of employee personal information. 
ZTE attaches much importance to employees' personal rights and protect employee 
privacy," said Mr. Gu Junying, Executive Vice President of ZTE. "The company 
has incorporated external laws and regulations into the systems and rules of 
corporate governance, and formulated implementable management measures in 
accordance with the requirements of the ISO/IEC 27701:2019. These systems and 
rules as well as management measures have been integrated into human resource 
management activities through digital tools, ensuring the security and 
credibility of employee information processing, and the legitimacy and 
compliance of process management."

Mr. Lin Jin, Managing Director of BSI Asia Pacific, said: "On behalf of BSI 
Group, I would like to congratulate ZTE's human resources management for 
successfully passing the audit and obtaining the ISO/IEC 27701 privacy 
information management system certification. The acquisition of the ISO 
certificate indicates that ZTE Corporation has become the first company in the 
world to obtain the ISO 27701 certificate in the field of internal human 
resources management."

"The construction of the human resources personal information protection system 
has achieved landmark results. It is an important manifestation of the 
company's protection of private information, respect for the rights and 
interests of employees, and fulfillment of employers' responsibilities," added 
Mr. Lin Jin. "In the future, BSI will continue to support the establishment of 
ZTE's excellent compliance system. We look forward to ZTE's continuous 
promotion of human resources data protection capabilities, and provide 
benchmarking demonstrations and valuable experience for the entire industry and 
various companies' data compliance work."

Moving forward, ZTE will continue to position itself as a world-class and 
industry-leading company in personal data protection compliance, improve 
end-to-end risk management and control, and optimize system management and 
operation, expecting to further enhance effective system management and 
control, promote the employer brand, build trust, and shape the company image 
of "employee privacy defender".
