Locate the option to designate a Data Protection Officer.
Choose the appropriate email address(es) of the designated individual(s) who will be responsible for managing data breach incidents.
Note: You may assign more than one Data Protection Officer if need be.
Step 3: Setting Contact Protocols
Define clear internal contact protocols for reaching out to the designated DPO in the event of a data breach or critical data-related incidents. Ensure that the contact information remains up-to-date and readily accessible to authorized personnel.
Beneficial Use Cases
