The Hong Kong Competition Commission (the "Commission") generally conducts investigations in private to protect the legitimate interests of the parties involved, notably by preventing competitors from receiving access to competitively sensitive information.

- How to claim confidentiality?
- Who is bound to confidentiality?
- Confidentiality within the context of leniency applications
- Protection of personal data
