The framework

Togo regulates personal data through Law 2019-014 on Personal Data Protection, supervised by the IPDCP.

For advertisers the consent posture matters most, and Togo sits in the opt-in bloc, where tracking and outreach need permission up front.

Key instruments

Law 2019-014 on Personal Data Protection

2019 · In force

A 2019 law with its authority (IPDCP) installed in 2024; obligations are formal but enforcement is young.

Marketing and advertising

Consent-first framework. In practice that means consent before tracking or marketing outreach, documented well enough to show a regulator.

Cross-border transfers

Transfers abroad sit under the data protection authority's supervision.

Enforcement and penalties

The law provides for fines and criminal penalties. A ceiling means little until the authority uses it, so its docket is the better guide.
