Govern & prove · Breach Response

A breach starts more than one deadline

Log an incident once and see every deadline it starts: the Data Protection Board, the people affected and your sector regulator. The nearest deadline is shown first.

What it does

Breach Response in practice

All deadlines from one time

The moment you found out starts every deadline. Each one counts down live, with the nearest at the top.

s.8(6): inform the Board and each affected person

Your sector's rules too

A bank or hospital may have a shorter deadline from its own regulator. It is shown alongside the DPDP deadlines.

Suppliers on your deadline

Suppliers' reporting times are checked against your deadline, so their warning doesn't arrive after yours was due.

Also included

The details that matter

  • Who was told, when and what they were told, kept as proof.
  • Linked to the systems and data affected.
