                      In the event of a personal data breach that may pose a risk to your rights and freedoms, the data controller must notify the supervisory authority of the breach within 72 hours of its detection (as outlined in GDPR Article 55).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                      <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                      If the risk is significant, without prejudice to the provisions of GDPR Article 34, Paragraph 3, the data controller must also inform you about the breach, providing information on its origin, potential consequences, and contact details for further information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                          • However, while the data subject is enrolled in a course and the course is active, the training center may access personal identification and contact details.

However, as proof of fulfilling responsibilities, the data controller retains a printed copy of the data deletion request.
