How to Navigate Saudi Arabia's PDPL: Key Steps to Ensure Compliance

As the Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL) becomes a critical requirement for businesses operating in Saudi Arabia, it's crucial to understand the key steps to ensure full compliance.

Whether your organization is just beginning to implement data privacy measures or you're looking to refine your existing strategy, Inovasys is here to guide you through the compliance process.

1. Understand the PDPL Requirements

The PDPL sets strict guidelines for handling personal data in Saudi Arabia. Compliance with the law requires businesses to establish transparent data processing practices, assess risks,and protect sensitive information. At Inovasys, we help you interpret these regulations and provide actionable steps for meeting PDPL requirements.

2. Conduct a Data Privacy Impact Assessment (DPIA)

A Data Privacy Impact Assessment (DPIA) is essential to identifying and mitigating potential risks to personal data during processing activities. By analyzing how personal data is collected, stored, and processed, we ensure that your business minimizes privacy risks.

3. Maintain a Record of Processing Activities (RoPA)

Under the PDPL, businesses must maintain a detailed Record of Processing Activities (RoPA). This document tracks every aspect of personal data handling, including the purpose, data subject categories, and retention periods. Inovasys helps businesses build and maintain a compliant RoPA.

4. Implement a Data Privacy Framework

Inovasys assists organizations in developing a robust data privacy framework, integrating policies, procedures, and tools necessary for PDPL compliance. This includes ensuring data protection measures are embedded within business processes and systems.

5. Ongoing Compliance Monitoring and Auditing

PDPL compliance isn’t a one-time event. Ongoing audits, training, and process updates are essential. We provide continuous monitoring and help businesses stay up to date with any changes in data protection regulations.
