Why Sri Lanka and Dijital Team are the Secure Offshore Choice for Your Business

In today’s digital world, trust is everything especially when it comes to where and how your data is handled. With the introduction of the Personal Data Protection Act, No. 9 of 2022 (PDPA) Sri Lanka has set a new benchmark in South Asia for secure, transparent, and globally aligned data governance.

At Dijital Team we are proud to operate in a country that is not only rich in talent but also backed by one of the most progressive data protection laws in the region. For customers, this means peace of mind, security, and confidence in every interaction with our offshore teams.

A Global Standard for Data Security

Sri Lanka’s PDPA is modelled closely on the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), one of the world’s most trusted privacy frameworks. This means our clients enjoy the same level of protection they would expect from top-tier global providers.

For Dijital Team customers, this translates into:

• Strict legal requirements for how personal data is collected, processed, and stored
• Clear rules around consent, access, rectification, and deletion
• Mandatory privacy impact assessments for high-risk activities
• Appointed Data Protection Officers (DPOs) for enhanced accountability

Simply put: our clients benefit from world-class data protections without compromising on cost or capability.

Your Data Protected - Wherever It Goes

One of the most valuable aspects of the PDPA is its regulation of cross-border data transfers. Unlike other offshoring destinations, Sri Lanka now requires that data leaving the country must meet strong international standards.

This ensures that Dijital Team can seamlessly support global customers while maintaining the integrity and safety of their data whether it stays in Sri Lanka or travels abroad.

Built-In Accountability: The Role of the Data Protection Authority

The newly formed Data Protection Authority (DPA) in Sri Lanka serves as an independent regulatory body overseeing compliance, investigating breaches, and safeguarding individual rights. This layer of oversight adds another level of assurance for customers entrusting sensitive business and customer data to offshore partners like Dijital Team.

What This Means for You

When you work with Dijital Team, you are not just choosing a team with deep technical expertise you are choosing a partner embedded in a jurisdiction that takes privacy, security, and compliance seriously.

• Aligned with GDPR principles
• Transparent data handling processes
• Strong legal safeguards for customer data
• Greater control and recourse for data subjects

Final Thoughts

The introduction of the PDPA positions Sri Lanka as the premier destination for secure, responsible offshoring, and it reinforces Dijital Team’s commitment to doing right by our customers. As digital interactions grow more complex, our promise is simple: your data is safe with us.

If you are looking for a compliant, cost-effective, and future-ready offshore partner, Dijital Team is the secure choice.
