Our Approach
The Bahrain Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL) is a comprehensive legal framework designed to safeguard individuals' personal data privacy. It mandates organizations to implement robust data protection measures, ensuring the security and confidentiality of personal information. Key provisions of the PDPL include data subject rights, such as access, rectification, erasure, and restriction of processing. Organizations are obligated to implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect personal data. Furthermore, the law imposes strict regulations on cross-border data transfers and mandates timely notification of data breaches. The Data Protection Authority is empowered to enforce the law, investigate complaints, and impose penalties for non-compliance.
