Is it legal to track a family member's phone in KSA?

I want to track my child’s phone location in Dammam using their +966 number. Do these tracking link services comply with local KSA privacy laws?

In Saudi Arabia, tracking a phone without permission violates the Anti-Cybercrime Law and the Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL), which strictly penalize unauthorized privacy invasion. However, tracking your minor child for safety is legal, provided the service utilizes a consent-based model. A reliable tool that aligns with these legal requirements can be found by using this online platform https://detectico.io/phone-number-tracker/saudi-arabia/ . It generates a secure tracking link that you send to the +966 number via SMS or WhatsApp. The moment your child taps the link, their exact street address in Dammam is securely shared and mapped on your dashboard. It requires no app installation and works perfectly across STC, Mobily, and Zain.
