Overview
Build Accountable Personal Data Governance
Tanzania’s Personal Data Protection Act establishes requirements for the collection and processing of personal data and creates rights for data subjects. We help organisations understand their data, clarify controller and processor responsibilities, assess compliance, improve governance, document processing, protect information, handle rights, prepare for incidents, and manage third-party and cross-border risks.
This page provides general information and consulting context, not legal advice. Requirements should be confirmed against current law, PDPC guidance, and advice appropriate to the organisation.
