You’ll learn what a data breach is, how to prevent a breach of your startup’s personal data, how to react in the event of a personal data breach, and what penalties apply.

When the startup acts as a Data Controller, it is recommended to :

• firstly, implement an internal policy for managing personal data breaches, so as to have an internal process enabling us to detect and act very quickly in the event of a data breach;
• in the event of data breaches, complete an initial notification to the CNIL, which will be supplemented “as soon as possible” by an additional notification, and notify the persons concerned.

When the startup acts as a Subcontractor, it is recommended not to carry out any notification to the supervisory authority or communication to data subjects on behalf of the Data Controller. The RGPD does not impose these obligations on the startup acting as a Subcontractor.
