SDAIA Joins Global Privacy Assembly to Boost International Data Protection Efforts

The Saudi Data and Artificial Intelligence Authority (SDAIA) has joined the Global Privacy Assembly (GPA), marking a significant step in the Kingdom’s commitment to international personal data protection standards.

 This membership strengthens Saudi Arabia's presence in global privacy forums and underscores its progress in implementing best practices for data security and individual privacy.

 By joining the GPA, SDAIA will actively participate in shaping global trends and addressing challenges within the personal data protection landscape.
