A documented Saudi PDPL compliance management system, from gap assessment and records of processing through to breach response and defensible destruction records.
Overview
The Saudi Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL) — Royal Decree M/19 of 9/2/1443H, as amended by Royal Decree M/148 of 5/9/1444H — governs how the personal data of individuals in the Kingdom is collected, processed, disclosed and transferred. Together with its Implementing Regulation and the Regulation on Personal Data Transfer outside the Kingdom, and under the supervision of the Saudi Data & AI Authority (SDAIA), it imposes concrete duties: lawful bases and consent management, privacy notices, data subject rights handling, records of processing activities, controller–processor arrangements, transfer assessments, breach notification and secure destruction.
Meeting those duties is a documentation exercise as much as a legal one. Regulators, auditors and counterparties expect approved policies, working procedures, completed registers and an evidence trail — not a legal memo. This system provides that documented layer: a controlled set of Word and Excel documents built on the official Saudi sources, with every requirement tagged to distinguish legal obligations under the PDPL and its regulations from organisational controls and recommended practice.
What this system covers
The system is organised as a working management loop. An apex compliance manual sets the framework; policies and procedures sit with their operational domains — privacy governance and the DPO role, data subject rights, consent, data sharing and disclosure, processor management, international transfers, retention and destruction, and data security and breach management. Fillable forms, Excel registers and checklists turn each procedure into evidence, and a regulatory compliance matrix maps PDPL Articles 1–43 and Implementing Regulation Articles 1–38 to the documents that satisfy them.
- Gap assessment methodology and checklists to baseline your current position
- ROPA management and a ready-to-populate register of processing activities
- DPIA screening, international transfer assessments and processor due diligence
- Breach assessment and response procedures with notification content templates
- Internal audit, corrective action, management review and a full training pack
Who it's for
Built for data protection officers, privacy and compliance managers, and legal counsel in organisations operating in Saudi Arabia — and for international groups whose processing of Saudi personal data brings them within the PDPL's scope. It suits banks, insurers, healthcare providers, retailers and technology companies alike, and gives consultancies a consistent, source-traceable foundation for delivering PDPL programmes across clients.
