Understanding data privacy, GDPR transparency & compliance
Data Privacy
By setting precise guidelines for the collection, processing, and protection of personal data, the Jordanian Personal Data Protection Law No. (24) of 2023 (JPDPA) represents a significant advancement in the protection of privacy rights in Jordan. This is Jordan's first comprehensive data protection law, bringing the nation into compliance with international privacy norms like the GDPR of the EU.
