Achieve Saudi Personal Data Protection Law (KSA PDPL) Compliance in 4 Weeks
With Hala Privacy
Navigating Saudi Arabia’s Personal Data Protection Law (KSA PDPL) can be overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be. At Hala Privacy, we understand the unique challenges businesses face:
Complex legal obligations and limited internal expertise.
Uncertainty about where to start or how to stay compliant.
High costs and slow timelines from traditional consultancies.
To bridge this gap, Hala Privacy was founded to simplify PDPL compliance with practical strategies tailored to your needs so you can meet regulatory expectations quickly and with confidence.
Hala Privacy’s Promise:
Our expert privacy consultants transform complex Personal Data Protection Law, Implementing Regulation, and evolving SDAIA guidelines into a streamlined plan so you can get compliant in weeks, not months.
KSA PDPL Compliance is Fundamentally:

How Hala Privacy Helps You Achieve PDPL Compliance
Data Mapping & Lawful Basis
We identify what personal data your business collects, where it resides, how it’s used, and under what legal basis, such as consent, legal obligation, or contract, as required under PDPL Articles 5, 6 and 10 and scope each personal data processing activity with Purpose Limitation and Data Minimisation principles, as recommended under the PDPL Implementing Regulation Articles 18, 19.
This foundation is critical to ensuring all processing activities are lawful and well-documented.
Transparency & Privacy Notices
We draft and localize privacy notices that meet the requirements of PDPL Articles 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, and PDPL Implementing Regulation Article 4.
These notices clearly inform individuals about why their data is being collected, how long it will be retained, their rights under the law, and whether data will be shared or transferred outside the Kingdom.
Governance, DPO & Accountability
We help you establish a strong data protection governance model, including policies, procedures, and role-based responsibilities.
If you are required to appoint a Personal Data Protection Officer (DPO) under PDPL Article 30, and PDPL Implementing Regulation Article 32, we support you in fulfilling this obligation or provide DPO-as-a-Service (DPOaaS).
We also train internal teams to ensure ongoing accountability and regulatory awareness across your organization.
Breach Readiness & Security
We implement and assess technical and organizational security measures in line with the obligations under the PDPL Implementing Regulation.
Our team establishes breach response protocols to ensure that you can report incidents to SDAIA within 72 hours, as required by PDPL Article 20 and PDPL Implementing Regulation Article 24, and notify impacted individuals without undue delay.
Cross‑border Transfers
We support your business in managing international data transfers in compliance with PDPL Article 29 and SDAIA’s Transfer Regulations.
This includes assessing adequacy, applying appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs), Binding Common Rules (BCRs), or approved Codes of Conduct, in the absence of an adequacy decision and guiding you through SDAIA’s four-step Transfer Risk Assessment (as outlined in February 2025 guidance).
