What this usually involves

The 72-hour notification clock starts when you become aware of a breach. Early legal input helps you decide what is reportable and how to communicate.

  • Assessing risk to individuals and reportability
  • ICO notification and record keeping
  • Notifying affected people and managing claims

Common questions

Does every breach need reporting?
No - only breaches likely to result in a risk to individuals' rights and freedoms, but the assessment must be documented either way.
What are the penalties?
UK GDPR fines can reach the higher of £17.5m or 4% of global turnover, though enforcement is proportionate.
