Efforts were also made to retrieve millions of Bluetooth-enabled&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/singapore-to-begin-nationwide-distribution-of-covid-19-contact-tracing-wearables\/\" rel=\"follow\">wearables, which were distributed nationwide to detect and monitor<\/a>&nbsp;user proximity, so these devices could be refurbished and recycled for future use when needed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/best-vpn\/\" rel=\"follow\"><strong>The best VPN services (and how to choose the right one for you)<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/singapore-introduces-contact-tracing-app-to-slow-coronavirus-spread\/\" rel=\"follow\">TraceTogether and SafeEntry<\/a>&nbsp;systems are now no longer operating and all COVID-related personal data collected from the two platforms has been deleted, confirmed the Smart Nation Group, which is a government agency that sits under the Prime Minister&#8217;s Office and is managed by the Ministry of Communications and Information.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><!----><\/p>\n<p>User registration data, which was kept to enable quick rollout and registration for both systems, should a new variant emerge, has also been erased.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/best-cloud-storage\/\" rel=\"follow\">The top cloud storage services you can buy to protect your files<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The only data retained was collected via the TraceTogether system and used in relation to a May 2020 murder case. This information will be held indefinitely by the Singapore Police Force to facilitate potential legal applications, should the conviction or sentence be challenged years after the case has concluded. This situation may require the police to disclose the data.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Back in February 2021, Singapore passed new <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/singapore-passes-bill-governing-police-use-of-contact-tracing-data\/\" rel=\"follow\">legislation detailing the scope of local law enforcement&#8217;s access to COVID-19<\/a> contact-tracing data.

In addition, the mobile apps for TraceTogether and SafeEntry Business have been removed from official app stores.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Introduced in March 2020, the TraceTogether app tapped Bluetooth signals to detect other participating mobile devices in close proximity, allowing the system to identify people who had been in close contact when needed. Data was captured, encrypted, and stored locally on the user&#8217;s phone for 21 days and, when needed in contact-tracing processes, uploaded to the Health Ministry for review.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/best-iphone-vpn\/\" rel=\"follow\"><strong>The best VPN services for iPhone and iPad (yes, you need to use one)<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/singapore-turns-to-businesses-to-bolster-contact-tracing-efforts\/\" rel=\"follow\">SafeEntry<\/a>&nbsp;was used as a digital check-in system that gathered data to facilitate contact tracing of individuals, and the locations they visited, when they tested positive for COVID.
