Before launch in Qatar, we work through this checklist with your team and advisers:
- Map every personal-data field to a lawful purpose under Law No. 13 of 2016 on personal data protection.
- Decide where data is hosted and whether data about Qatar customers must stay in-region.
- Implement consent records plus data-subject access and deletion workflows.
- Encrypt data in transit and at rest; restrict and log administrative access.
- Prepare a breach-notification procedure that meets the timelines that apply in Qatar.
- Review contracts and data-processing agreements for every third-party service.

Backups and disaster-recovery copies follow the same residency decision.
