Saudi Arabia’s PDPL: Safeguarding Privacy in the Digital Era

The Saudi Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL) is a comprehensive framework aimed at protecting personal data in Saudi Arabia. It aligns with international standards, such as the GDPR, and emphasizes consent, transparency, and individual rights.

Our service combines technology, processes, and expert guidance to manage personal data securely. We offer a robust data governance framework, advanced security measures, and professional support to ensure compliance and strengthen data protection. Partnering with Ducara enables organizations to navigate PDPL requirements, enhance their data protection posture, and gain a competitive edge.

Key Rights under Saudi Arabia PDPL

The Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL) in Saudi Arabia grants residents several important rights regarding their personal data.

Right to information

Any organization that processes a user's personal data is required to inform the user about the legal basis for collecting the data and the purpose for which it will be used. Furthermore, users have the right to be informed that their data should not be processed for any different purpose in the future.

Right to access

Users have the right to access their personal data and make it available to the relevant regulatory authority. Additionally, users are entitled to receive a copy of their personal data in a format that is easily readable, and this should be provided free of charge in accordance with the law.

Right to rectification

Users have the right to request businesses to correct, update, or complete their personal data within a reasonable timeframe. In such cases, the business is required to notify any other party with whom they have shared or transferred the data, ensuring that the updated information is provided to them as well.

Right to erasure

Users have the right to request the deletion of their personal data if it is no longer necessary for business purposes. Data controllers and processors must comply with the data subject’s request for erasure within a reasonable period, unless there is a legal obligation or a legitimate interest to retain the data.

To Whom Does it Apply?

The scope of the Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL) extends to various entities, both public and private, as well as their affiliated organizations, that handle the personal data of Saudi residents for the purpose of providing goods or services. Additionally, the law applies to entities located outside of Saudi Arabia that process the personal data of Saudi residents.

Under this law, personal data is safeguarded, encompassing information that can be used to identify an individual, including deceased individuals and their family members. However, the law excludes information used for household or personal purposes, which falls outside its purview.
