Pre-introduction (before November 9)[edit]

The city government welcomed the first batch of Department of the Interior and Local Government contact tracers during a special orientation and training held in Valenzuela People's Park on October 20. The 226 newly hired contact tracers were trained in proper disease surveillance and contact tracing, handling data privacy and the use of the ValTrace App – Valenzuela's newest addition to its contact tracing platform utilizing the use of QR codes and location history.[1]

November 9 – announcement[edit]

laws and guidelines have also been placed to regulate the system as it follows its Role to Provide Contact Tracing under Ordinance No. 783 (ValTrace Application Ordinance) Under the ordinance, covered establishments must register with the system, scan the QR codes of all their customers and forward their customers' information to the local government after 24 hours of being offline from the system, among others.

Failure to comply will merit a ₱5,000, ₱10,000, or ₱15,000 fine, or the revocation of their business permit on the first, second, and third offense, respectively.

Any person who will provide false information about the application or will let another person use their personal QR will also be fined ₱1,000, ₱3,000, and ₱5,000 for the first, second, and third offense, respectively.[2]
