Webinar | Data Protection Laws of Africa | Public event

The number of data protection laws in Africa is on the rise. And new laws create new compliance obligations. That’s why it is important for organisations that have a presence, or customers in Africa to understand what laws apply to them. There are several questions that as an organisation you need to have answers to like: 

• Do you have to register as a data controller in that country? 
• Do you need any authorisation to process a particular type of personal information? 
• Are you allowed to transfer personal information out of the country to your head office? 

To answer these questions you need to know whether there is a data protection law in the country, and if there is a law, what it states. Join us for a complimentary webinar where our team of experts guide you on what you need to know about data protection laws in Africa.
