The Cayman Islands Data Protection Law, 2017 (DP
Law) is currently scheduled to come into effect on 30
September 2019. Once commenced, it will enact a framework of
rights and duties to regulate the processing of individuals'
personal data broadly based on the same internationally recognised
privacy principles that form the basis for other data protection
laws globally. The DP Law will regulate the processing of all
personal data in the Cayman Islands and will affect any entity
established in the Cayman Islands, including investment funds, that
processes personal data regardless of whether such processing takes
place within the Cayman Islands and regardless of whether the
personal data relates to Cayman individuals. For our full
briefing see Cayman Islands Data Protection Law: An Ogier Client
Guide.
