What this law does
A data subject has the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning them or significantly affects them. The Gambia has enacted the Personal Data Protection and Privacy Act, 2025. The Information Commission and the Ministry of Information conducted community sensitisation sessions on the newly enacted Act in November 2025.
The review records the Act as enacted and names no date on which it comes into operation, so the day its duties begin to bind is not established.
