About the training
On January 2, 2022, the Federal Law-Decree on the Protection of Personal Data No. 45 took effect in the Emirates. This law applies not only to companies in the UAE, but also to those beyond its borders if Emirati personal data is being processed. The extraterritorial principle from GDPR has extended to the UAE. Additionally, the federal law has incorporated many provisions of the European regulation.
During this training, you will get a deep understanding of the requirements of the UAE and the two main free economic zones (DIFC, ADGM) in comparison with the GDPR.
