Data Protection in Jordan: From 2020 Draft to Full Legislation Today
In 2020, Jordan initiated the legislative process for a comprehensive Personal Data Protection Law. At that time, the draft law was prepared for parliamentary discussion with the aim of granting individuals essential rights over their personal data — including the right to correct, restrict, erase, rectify, and access their information.
These compliance areas help businesses operate legally and confidently within Jordan’s regulatory environment.
- The Jordanian Constitution
- The Electronic Crimes Law
- The Civil Code
- International treaties and obligations
Today, this foundation remains relevant — but it has been strengthened significantly with the issuance of the Personal Data Protection Law No. 24 of 2023 (PDPL), which establishes a modern, unified legal framework governing data privacy in Jordan.
At Jaradat & Associates, we continue to build on our early expertise with the original 2020 draft, providing authoritative guidance under the current, fully enacted PDPL.
