Expertise
Technology and data
The contracts, licences and compliance behind technology products in Oman.
What this covers
Oman's Personal Data Protection Law, issued by Royal Decree 6/2022, entered full enforcement on 5 February 2026. Its Executive Regulation, Ministerial Decision 34/2024, sets the operational detail: how consent is captured, how quickly a data subject request must be answered, and when a permit is needed before processing sensitive data. For technology companies this stopped being theoretical.
What we do
- Personal data compliance under the PDPL and its Executive Regulation
- Data subject request handling and breach response procedures
- Cross-border data transfer arrangements
- Software, SaaS and platform licensing
- Technology development and services agreements
- Intellectual property protection and assignment
- Electronic transactions and e-signature validity
- Reseller, distribution and channel agreements
How we approach it
Compliance work that produces a policy nobody follows is wasted money. We write procedures the business can actually run, and we test them against what the regulation requires rather than what a template assumes.
Awaiting firm input
