Abstract

This paper explores Amendment 13 of Israel’s Privacy Protection Law (PPL) and its potential impact on data protection in Israel. It examines how the amendment aligns Israeli privacy law with global privacy standards, particularly the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and provides a framework for imposing new administrative fines. The paper discusses the broader implications of these changes for businesses and government entities, as well as the compliance challenges they present. Key reforms include stronger enforcement mechanisms, new criminal offences, and the introduction of the obligation to appoint data protection officers. The analysis includes actionable recommendations for policy makers, businesses and legal practitioners in adapting to these significant regulatory shifts. This paper is also included in The Business & Management Collection which can be accessed at https://hstalks.com/business/
