Technology & Data Privacy & Cybersecurity Services in Saudi Arabia

Overview

Technology companies need careful review of how they collect, process, and store personal data, subject to specific disclosure and consent requirements that may differ based on data type and sensitivity.

We review data processing agreements with outside service providers to confirm these agreements protect the company from liability for that third party's handling of the data.

Regulatory Basis

This area falls under the Personal Data Protection Law and its implementing regulations, which set requirements for collecting, processing, and retaining personal data.

How We Help Technology Companies

We review the company's actual practices in collecting and processing data, not just its written policy, to confirm full alignment between the two.

Who Needs This Service

A technology company collecting personal data from its users that needs its compliance with data protection regulations reviewed.

A company contracting with an outside cloud or technology service provider that needs the accompanying data processing agreement reviewed.

We notice that some technology companies draft a detailed privacy policy, but the actual user experience on the platform doesn't align with it, such as collecting additional location data without clear notice within the actual usage interface, a gap between the written document and actual practice that deserves a field review, not just a review of the text alone.

Additional Considerations

This connects directly with our data protection and PDPL compliance service as a deeper specialized topic.

For platforms collecting consumer data through direct sales, this connects with our e-commerce disputes service.
