Data Privacy Compliance (PDPL)

Data Privacy Compliance (PDPL and GCC Regulations)

As data protection laws continue to evolve across the GCC and beyond, organizations must proactively manage how they collect, store, and use personal information. Whether it’s Bahrain’s PDPL, the UAE’s DIFC Data Protection Law and Federal Data Protection Law, Saudi Arabia’s Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL-KSA), Qatar’s Data Protection Regulations, Kuwait’s Cybercrime Law and draft data protection bill, or Oman’s Personal Data Protection Law, compliance is essential for maintaining customer trust and avoiding regulatory penalties.
