Data Breach Policy

This Data Breach Policy ensures immediate, transparent, and effective action in the event of a data breach. It provides clear procedures for identifying, reporting, containing, and investigating breaches, minimising potential harm to individuals and the organisation. Staff are guided on notification requirements, including timely communication with relevant authorities, affected individuals, and management in line with GDPR and legal obligations. The policy outlines responsibilities, documentation, and remedial actions to prevent recurrence. By following this policy, the organisation protects sensitive information, maintains trust, and demonstrates accountability, ensuring breaches are managed promptly, responsibly, and in compliance with data protection standards.
