The Irish Data Protection Commission Publishes Guidance Relating to Third Parties Accidentally in Receipt of Personal Data Relating to Other Individuals

The Irish Data Protection Commission has issued Guidance to individuals and organizations who accidentally receive personal data, and Guidance to controllers who lose control over personal data in those circumstances.


All three documents describe cases when such incidents may occur, how should individuals and organizations who receive personal data deal with those, and what should controllers who lost control over personal data in the first place do in response to such incidents.

 

The Guidance can be accessed here.
