Senior officials and staff of the Public Service Development Agency of the Ministry of Justice held discussions regarding the changes brought about by the new Law “On Personal Data Protection”, which will come into effect on March 1, 2024 and will be implemented in the Agency.
Agency representatives, in collaboration with an expert in personal data protection, reviewed the legal framework and principles for data processing, using practical examples and taking into account both international and national laws. At the task meeting, they discussed processes that may affect personal data protection and an assessment of these processes was initiated.
The Agency is one of the leading personal data processing organizations in the country and is committed to maintaining the stringent standards of data protection and processing.
The two-day task meeting was supported by the National Governance Program of the US Agency for International Development (USAID).
The new Law “On Personal Data Protection” is in compliance with data protection requirements effective in EU countries.
In the future, the Agency intends to continue taking active measures to ensure that the organization implements adequate safeguards for protecting personal data.
