Frequently Asked Questions

What triggers the 72-hour DPDP notification clock?+
The 72-hour clock starts when the organisation becomes aware (has reasonable grounds to believe) that a personal data breach has occurred — not when confirmed.
Must we notify data principals of all breaches?+
Notify data principals when the breach is likely to result in harm to them — identity theft, financial loss, reputation damage. Minor internal incidents without external risk may not require individual notification.
What if we can't assess the full breach scope within 72 hours?+
Notify the Board within 72 hours with what is known, clearly stating that the investigation is ongoing. Submit a supplementary notification with complete details as soon as available.
