The Kenya Data Protection Act No. 24 of 2019 establishes Kenya's comprehensive data protection framework. It creates the Office of the Data Protection Commissioner (ODPC) as the supervisory authority. The Act establishes data processing principles, data subject rights, registration requirements for controllers and processors, and provisions for cross-border data transfers. Applies to processing of personal data by controllers and processors within and outside Kenya where data subjects are in Kenya.
