All the key GCC jurisdictions have now enacted various types of data protection and privacy laws to regulate how information is collected, how data subjects are informed and what control a data subject has over their information once it is transferred.  The legislative landscape in the GCC has changed considerably over the last few years as it catches up to European and US data protection regimes.  We would like to give our experiences so far as local GCC counsel to our valued clients and friends in our new upcoming webinar.

Please join us as we discuss the same on Tuesday, 21 March 2023 at 2:00 pm GST at our webinar titled Data Protection in the GCC. 

In this complimentary webinar co-hosted by GLA & Company and Thomson Reuters, we will present an overview of the data protection related laws and regulations in key GCC states, particularly Kuwait, United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Saudi Arabia. We will take a closer look at the Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL) including the enforcement of any data protection laws and regulations in those states. In addition, we will discuss any anticipated developments in relation to data protection legislation and regulations in the various GCC states.
