On Monday (1/8) the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC) implemented a stronger Data Protection Law and appointed a Data Protection Commission to oversee the DIFC.
“The Data Protection Law, which has been amended following a period of public consultation, ensures the protection of all personal information, including any sensitive personal data, and is compliant with the provisions of the laws and directives of the European Union and the guidelines of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), including the transfer of data.”
