Even the most detailed policies or frameworks can’t guarantee ongoing Saudi Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL) compliance if you are not regularly auditing how well they work in practice.
Hala Privacy’s PDPL Compliance Audit ensures your organization’s personal data-handling activities align with Saudi Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL) requirements. Our external audit will give you clarity, highlight your risks, and ensure your business meets all SDAIA regulatory requirements.
By examining your processes and pinpointing potential gaps, we help you maintain a higher standard of personal data protection, provide clear steps to achieve full compliance, and build stronger trust with your customers.
By performing a thorough audit, Hala Privacy helps you validate your privacy posture, highlight areas needing improvement, and maintain end-to-end Saudi Personal Data Protection Law (KSA PDPL) regulatory compliance.
We begin by clarifying what your audit will cover, such as technical controls, policies and procedures, vendor agreements, or consent management and gather input from key stakeholders like Legal, IT, Security, and Operations.
Using interviews, document reviews, and technical checks, we gather information on how personal data is stored, processed, and transferred. This includes verifying RoPA entries and incident response plans.
We map each finding against Saudi Personal Data Protection Law (KSA PDPL) requirements, identifying specific gaps and categorizing risks. We also note any areas that are already strongly compliant.
Based on the audit findings, we propose tailored solutions such as updating policies, tightening security configurations, adjusting vendor contracts, or enhancing DSR workflows to reduce risks and strengthen compliance.
After implementing the recommendations, we can schedule periodic mini-audits or post-remediation checks to track progress, maintain robust data protection, and keep up with evolving regulations.
