Bahrain has become a part of the countries that have enacted a data privacy regulation to protect the rights of their residents. On 12 July 2018, Bahrain drafted its law on data protection regulation, Law No. 30. This then went on to go into effect on the 1st of August 2019 as the Bahrain Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL) and supersedes all other laws. The PDPL recognizes the rights of individuals to have more control over their personal data and the needs of organizations to collect, use, or disclose personal data for legitimate purposes.
The PDPL applies to every individual normally living or working in Bahrain (not just citizens of Bahrain), every business with a place of business in Bahrain, and individuals and businesses outside Bahrain who collect the personal data of individuals in Bahrain using means available in Bahrain.
SECURITI enables organizations to comply with the Bahrain PDPL through AI-driven PI data discovery, DSR automation, documented accountability, enhanced visibility into data processing activities, and AI-driven process automation.

The data subject has the right to object to the processing of personal data relating to him/her if the processing would cause unwarranted substantial damage, being material or moral, to the data subject or others.
PDPL grants the data subjects the right to object to direct marketing which is aimed at a particular person using their personal data, such as behavioral targeting, and ads sent via text messaging (SMS) or email.
Data subjects have the right to request the erasure/blocking if the processing of their personal data is in breach of the provisions of PDPL, in particular, if the data is inaccurate, unspecified, incomplete, or incorrect, especially if its processing is illegal or harmful to the data subject’s interests.
Under PDPL, if a decision is based solely on automated processing of personal data intended to assess the data subject regarding his/her performance at work, financial standing, credit-worthiness, reliability, or conduct, then the data subject has the right to request processing in a manner that is not solely automated.
PDPL applies to the processing of “Personal data,” which means any kind of information relating to an identified or identifiable person.
PDPL came into force on 1st August 2019.
Under PDPL, the data controller is prohibited from transferring personal data outside Bahrain unless the transfer is made to a country or region that provides sufficient protection to personal data.
The Personal Data Protection Authority oversees the compliance of entities with provisions of PDPL.
Under PDPL, organizations can not process personal data without seeking the data subject’s written and explicit consent. Data subjects can also withdraw their consent.
