The Egyptian Law No. 151 of 2020 was published in July 2020, and will take effect in October 2020. Additional accompanying laws are expected to be published within the next year. The Law prohibits the processing of personal data without the explicit consent of individuals and gives them multiple rights such as restricting access to their data, reversing prior consent, and being informed in case of any data breach.
