10. A breach is when the EU General Data Protection Regulation law has been broken and can result in any material and/or non-material loss to an individual, whether they are staff, customers or visitors. <br><br>a. EG: The details of the address of a member of staff is left on the desk. A visitor may check these details, look at the rota, which is on the wall and know when that member of staff is away from home. This could result in their house being burgled with material (financial loss) and non-material loss (mental strain, anxiety, peace of mind) to the individual concerned. <br>b. EG: A member of staff records details of CCTV footage on their mobile phone and broadcasts it on Facebook. In the CCTV footage the image of a child is captured, which could then be distributed on the dark web. This would result in non-material loss to the child, it’s parents and family.<br>c. EG: A photograph, which has been captured from CCTV footage, is pinned up on the wall in the office, with the caption ‘This is a shoplifter’. A visitor sees the photo and knows that person as a neighbour. The visitor then tells all his other neighbours that this particular person is a shoplifter, but we were mistaken, and this is a photo of the wrong person. This would result in non-material loss to the individual. <br>d. EG: Personnel files are left in an unlocked cabinet. The store is broken into overnight and the robbers now have access to New Starter forms, Bank Account details, copies of RTW and Address verification. They now have everything they need to empty all the staff Bank Accounts. This will result in material and non-material loss. <br><br>A breach or even the possibility of a breach must be reported to the Central Operations Manager immediately, even if you are not sure whether it is a breach or not. The Company needs to report this to the governing body for Data Protection within very strict timescales. Repercussions of a breach and/or lateness in reporting, are: 20m Euros and/or the individual concerned can sue for material and non-material loss.
