Data Breach

The Data Controller shall implement appropriate measures to detect, manage, and report data breaches.

Notification to the supervisory authority:
Notification to the supervisory authority shall be made within 72 hours where required.

The notification shall include at least:
(a) describe the nature of the data breach, including, where possible, the categories and approximate number of data subjects and the categories and approximate number of data affected by the breach;
(b) the name and contact details of the data protection officer or other contact person for further information must be provided;
c) the likely consequences of the data protection incident must be described;
d) describe the measures taken or planned by the controller to remedy the data protection incident, including, where applicable, measures aimed at mitigating any adverse consequences resulting from the data protection incident.
If and to the extent that it is not possible to communicate the information simultaneously, it may be communicated in parts at a later date without further undue delay. The controller shall keep records of data breaches, indicating the facts relating to the data breach, its effects and the measures taken to remedy it. This record shall enable the supervisory authority to verify compliance with the requirements of this Article.
Obligation to inform the data subject according to Article 34 of the GDPR
Where the personal data breach is likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons, the controller shall communicate the personal data breach to the data subject without undue delay. The communication to the data subject shall describe the nature of the personal data breach in a clear and intelligible manner and shall include at least the information and measures referred to in points (b), (c) and (d) of Article 33(3) of the GDPR.

The data subject does not need to be informed if any of the following conditions are met:
(a) the controller has implemented appropriate technical and organisational protection measures and these measures have been applied to the data affected by the data breach, in particular measures that render the data unintelligible to persons not authorised to access the personal data, such as the use of encryption;
(b) the controller has taken further measures following the personal data breach to ensure that the high risk to the rights and freedoms of the data subject referred to in paragraph (1) is no longer likely to materialise;
(c) the provision of information would involve a disproportionate effort. In such cases, the data subjects shall be informed by means of publicly available information or a similar measure shall be taken which ensures that the data subjects are informed in a similarly effective manner.
If the controller has not yet notified the data subject of the personal data breach, the supervisory authority may, after considering whether the personal data breach is likely to involve a high risk, order the data subject to be informed or determine that one of the above-mentioned conditions is met.

The rights of the data subject according to the GDPR:
In connection with data processing, through the Data Controller:
– you can request information about data processing and access to the data processed concerning you,
– in the event of inaccurate data, you may request correction or completion of incomplete data,
– you may request the deletion of data processed based on your consent,
– you may object to the processing of your personal data,
– you can exercise your right to data portability
– you can request restriction of data processing.
Upon request for information, the data subject may – provided that it is not subject to restriction for reasons of interest specified by law – find out whether the data controller is processing his/her personal data and is entitled to receive information regarding the data processed concerning him/her.
– for what purpose is it treated,
– what authorizes you to process the data (legal basis),
– when and for how long you process the data (duration),
– what data it processes and provides a copy of it to the data subject,
– the recipients of personal data and the categories of recipients,
– transfer to a third country or international organization,
– about the rights of data subjects related to data processing,
– about legal remedies.

The employer, as the data controller, shall respond to requests for information and access within 30 days at the latest. For additional copies of the personal data processed by the data subject, the data controller may charge a reasonable fee based on administrative costs. In some cases, the data controller may refuse to provide information based on statutory authorization – for example, in order to prevent or prosecute crimes – in which case the response shall include information on the statutory provision justifying the refusal to provide information and on the possibility of legal remedies. In the event of a request for correction (amendment) of data, the data subject must substantiate the reality of the data requested to be amended and must also prove that the person entitled to do so is indeed requesting the amendment of the data. If it is not clear whether the processed data is correct or accurate, the data controller shall not correct the data, but shall only mark it, i.e. indicate that the data subject objected to it, but it may not be incorrect. After confirming the authenticity of the request, the data controller shall, without undue delay, correct the inaccurate personal data or complete the data concerned by the request. The data controller shall notify the data subject of the correction or marking.

The data controller will comply with your request to restrict data processing if one of the following is met:
– the data subject disputes the accuracy of the personal data, in which case the restriction applies for a period of time that allows the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data,
– the data processing is unlawful and the data subject opposes the deletion of the data and instead requests the restriction of their use,
– the data controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of data processing, but the data subject requires them for the establishment, exercise or defence of legal claims; or against the data processing relating to him or her.
If the data is subject to restriction, then personal data, with the exception of storage, will only be processed:
– with the consent of the person concerned,
– to assert, exercise or defend legal claims,
– in order to protect the rights of another natural or legal person, or
– it can be processed in the important public interest of the European Union or a Member State.
The data controller shall inform the data subject in advance of the lifting of the restriction on data processing.
