Amendment No. 13 to Israel’s Privacy Protection Law

Amendment No. 13 to Israel’s Privacy Protection Law marks a significant milestone for legislation that has been in place since 1981.
The Israeli market is preparing for its entry into force on August 14, 2025, but we believe that this amendment will also be of interest to privacy professionals worldwide.
