GDPR ONE YEAR ON: EU LANDSCAPE OF PROCEDURES AND CASES

• The GDPR took effect on May 25, 2018

• During the first year, Data Protection

Authorities (“DPAs”) received:

• 280,000 + cases

• 144,000 + individual complaints

• 89,000 + data breach notifications

• So far in 2019, DPAs report an uptick in

data breach notifications

DATA BREACH: WHAT IS IT?

• What is a personal data breach?

A breach of security leading to the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized

disclosure of, or access to, personal data transmitted, stored or otherwise processed.

• To whom and when is notice required?

➢Supervisory Authority: unless unlikely to result in a risk to the rights and freedoms of the

individuals concerned

➢ Individuals concerned: likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of the individuals

concerned

➢Additional area-specific notification obligations:

▪ Statutory (e.g. telecommunication service providers, critical infrastructure operators,

digital services providers, ad-hoc publicity)

▪ Contractually (e.g. data processing agreements, customer agreements, contractual

accessory obligation)

Page 9: GDPR and CCPA Insurance Coverage Issues: Addressing New …media.straffordpub.com/products/gdpr-and-ccpa-insurance... · 2019-09-11 · GDPR ONE YEAR ON: EU LANDSCAPE OF PROCEDURES

DATA BREACH: TIMING / RISK OF FINES

• Timeframe

1. Without undue delay

– Where feasible, within 72 hours to the supervisory authority

2. After having become aware of the breach

– Reasonable degree of certainty is sufficient

– Short initial investigation is possible

– The controller is usually “aware” when the processor has informed it of

the breach

• Risk of fines with respect to information disclosed in the notification?

• Rectification – right to rectify inaccurate personal data

• Erasure – right to have data erased where processing no longer necessary,

consent is withdrawn, right of objection used, processing is unlawful, etc.

• Restriction – right to restrict disputed processing

• Portability – right to receive or transfer personal data where processing

based on consent or contract

• Objection to certain processing/automated decisions – e.g. right to prevent

processing based on legitimate interests unless compelling legitimate grounds

Page 12: GDPR and CCPA Insurance Coverage Issues: Addressing New …media.straffordpub.com/products/gdpr-and-ccpa-insurance... · 2019-09-11 · GDPR ONE YEAR ON: EU LANDSCAPE OF PROCEDURES

DATA SUBJECT RIGHTS: EXPERIENCE UNDER THE GDPR

• Large numbers of access requests

➢Over 40,000 in past year in the UK

➢Most common UK complaint - 42% in 2016/17, 39% in 2017/18 (would be over 15,000

DSR complaints)

➢ Likely to increase (activism/awareness, employee litigation)

• Starting to see fines

➢Under GDPR in Hungary for Euro 3,000 (February 2019)

➢UK Magnacrest prosecution - £1,500 fine (February 2019)

➢UK prosecution of Cambridge Analytica - £15,000 fine (pre-GDPR)

• Other DSRs less common (initial increase in erasure requests after

GDPR)

ADDITIONAL GDPR ENFORCEMENT ACTIONS

• Outside of the data breach context, DPAs have levied fines for a broad range of GDPR violations.

• January 21, 2019: French DPA (the CNIL) fined Google € 50 million ($56 million)

– Fine resulted from Google’s alleged failure to comply with the GDPR’s (1) transparency and

notice requirements and (2) to obtain valid consent from users.

– The CNIL noted that unambiguous consent requires clear, affirmative user action. A pre-ticked

box does not constitute unambiguous consent.

• July 2019: Greek DPA fines PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) € 150,000 ($166k)

– Fine resulted from Google’s alleged failure to comply with the GDPR’s (1) transparency and

notice requirements and (2) to obtain valid consent from users.

– The CNIL noted that unambiguous consent requires clear, affirmative user action. A pre-ticked

box does not constitute unambiguous consent.

Page 25: GDPR and CCPA Insurance Coverage Issues: Addressing New …media.straffordpub.com/products/gdpr-and-ccpa-insurance... · 2019-09-11 · GDPR ONE YEAR ON: EU LANDSCAPE OF PROCEDURES

CYBER INSURANCE OVERVIEW

➢ Evolution of cyber policies over 20 years has been marked by:

▪ Ongoing change – to respond to emerging risks and market demand

▪ Lack of standardization – more than 30 forms currently available

▪ Divergence in forms – robust vs. restrictive coverage

➢ Same themes apply to the insurance industry’s response to GDPR and CCPA exposures

25

Page 30: GDPR and CCPA Insurance Coverage Issues: Addressing New …media.straffordpub.com/products/gdpr-and-ccpa-insurance... · 2019-09-11 · GDPR ONE YEAR ON: EU LANDSCAPE OF PROCEDURES

COVERAGE FOR GDPR EXPOSURES

➢ Many GDPR exposures can be insured under cyber policies

▪ Cost of providing notice

▪ Credit monitoring as remedial measure

▪ Legal fees and forensic consulting fees to investigate breach

▪ Defense and settlement of damages claims by individuals in national courts

▪ Legal fees to defend regulatory investigations by DPAs or Member States

Page 31: GDPR and CCPA Insurance Coverage Issues: Addressing New …media.straffordpub.com/products/gdpr-and-ccpa-insurance... · 2019-09-11 · GDPR ONE YEAR ON: EU LANDSCAPE OF PROCEDURES

COVERAGE FOR GDPR FINES

➢ Considerable debate over insurability of GDPR fines

➢ Three questions may determine coverage

1. What type of fine?

▪ Article 84 permits Member States to impose their own penalties, which may be criminal in nature.

▪ Article 83 authorizes administrative fines

o Two tiers (one tier capped at EUR 10,000,000 or 2% of worldwide revenue; the other capped at EUR 20,000,000 or 4% of worldwide revenue)

o Can be imposed for poor network security practices or violations of individual rights

o Can be imposed for intentional or negligent conduct

31

COVERAGE FOR GDPR FINES

2. Which jurisdictions are involved?

➢ EU member states take different positions on insurability

▪ Where did violation take place?

▪ Where do affected individuals reside?

▪ Where are policyholder and insurer located?

▪ Which Member State’s Data Protection Authority handles enforcement?

32

COVERAGE FOR GDPR FINES

3. What type of conduct?

▪ Article 83 fines may be imposed for intentional or negligent conduct

▪ Fines may be imposed on parties that bear little or no fault

o British Airways and Marriott matters

▪ Little case law addressing insurability of government fines based on negligence or strict liability

▪ Under English law, the argument that government fines cannot be insured is based (in part) on principle of ex turpi causa

o i.e., a party cannot recover insurance for loss that results from its own wrongdoing

o applied where defendant’s conduct involves an element of moral turpitude

HYPOTHETICAL

34

US-based multinational corporation has cyber policy from the London market. Its German subsidiary is hacked by criminal actors, who exploit a previously unknown vulnerability and steal personal data of 50,000 consumers.

Policyholder immediately reports breach to the German DPA; notifies affected individuals within 72 hours; and offers free credit monitoring services. It also eliminates the vulnerability and strengthens overall network security.

German DPA investigates and imposes administrative fine.

What is the public policy rationale for prohibiting insurance coverage?

COVERAGE FOR CCPA EXPOSURES

Is your cyber insurance program adequate?

➢ New statutory obligations

▪ For the past 10-15 years, cyber policies have focused on the unauthorized disclosure of personal information

▪ CCPA (and GDPR) imposes new requirements for the handling, use, and transfer of information

➢ Violation of data processing requirements may not be covered under existing policies

➢ Sample policy language:

The Insurer will pay on behalf of the Insured:

Damages and Claims Expenses, in excess of the Retention, which the Insured shall become legally obligated to pay because of any Claim for theft, loss or unauthorized disclosure of Personally Identifiable Information …

36

Page 37: GDPR and CCPA Insurance Coverage Issues: Addressing New …media.straffordpub.com/products/gdpr-and-ccpa-insurance... · 2019-09-11 · GDPR ONE YEAR ON: EU LANDSCAPE OF PROCEDURES

HYPOTHETICAL

37

Ohio-based corporation, which does business in California, delays in undertaking a CCPA compliance review of its information security practices.

Company receives a request from Jane Doe, a California resident, to delete all personal data. Corporate compliance officer ensures that Ms. Doe’s data is deleted from all customer databases, but is unaware that the same data resides in other corporate locations.

After her data is compromised in a data breach, Ms. Doe files a class action under CCPA on behalf of all California residents who had requested deletion of their data, seeking damages for failure to delete and unauthorized disclosure.

Will claims be covered under existing cyber policies?

Page 38: GDPR and CCPA Insurance Coverage Issues: Addressing New …media.straffordpub.com/products/gdpr-and-ccpa-insurance... · 2019-09-11 · GDPR ONE YEAR ON: EU LANDSCAPE OF PROCEDURES

COVERAGE FOR CCPA EXPOSURES

➢ Class action litigation

▪ Anticipate surge in litigation once CCPA becomes effective

▪ Statutory damages remedy ($100 to $750) is likely to drive up cost of defense and settlement

➢ Existing cyber policies:

▪ May not provide sufficient policy limits for major litigation

▪ May not include clear coverage for statutory damages

38

Page 39: GDPR and CCPA Insurance Coverage Issues: Addressing New …media.straffordpub.com/products/gdpr-and-ccpa-insurance... · 2019-09-11 · GDPR ONE YEAR ON: EU LANDSCAPE OF PROCEDURES

COVERAGE FOR CCPA EXPOSURES

➢ Heightened risk of regulatory enforcement

▪ New enforcement authority of California Attorney General

▪ New civil penalties created under CCPA

▪ Questions of insurability – similar to GDPR

➢ Many existing cyber policies:

▪ Do not cover regulatory proceedings or

▪ Offer qualified coverage for government fines/penalties

➢ Sample policy language:

Loss means the amount the Insured is legally obligated to pay as a result of a Claim including: …

Civil fines or penalties assessed against an Insured Individual if, and to the extent, such fines or penalties are insurable as a matter of law

CLOSING THE COVERAGE GAP

Page 41: GDPR and CCPA Insurance Coverage Issues: Addressing New …media.straffordpub.com/products/gdpr-and-ccpa-insurance... · 2019-09-11 · GDPR ONE YEAR ON: EU LANDSCAPE OF PROCEDURES

CLOSING THE COVERAGE GAP

New regulatory landscape requires re-assessment of cyber insurance programs

1. Insuring agreement for Privacy Liability should cover both unauthorized disclosures and data processing violations

2. Review sufficiency of policy limits

3. Include express coverage for statutory damages

4. Include coverage for regulatory actions, with express reference to GDPR

5. Include coverage for fines to the fullest extent permitted by law

6. Consult with coverage counsel for optimal policy language

Cybersecurity &U.S. Regulation• Major data breaches involving large U.S. have

affected U.S. Consumers

• No uniform, comprehensive data security laws and regulations in the U.S. Competing Federal and State Laws and competing regulators (often the states) vie for center stage

• Uneven patchwork of laws and regulations creates problems for Companies doing business in the U.S.

• Companies forced to comply with contradictory or competing requirements

• EU GDPR only complicates matters further since they are not bound to US regulatory and litigation norms

Compliance 101Be Informed and Stay in the Lane!

• Inconsistent patchwork of U.S. federal and state laws, companies and boards of directors must be well-informed and stay well within the lanes established by regulators

• Robust compliance protocols must be in place

• Ensuring a culture of compliance within required timeframes (like it or not)

• But boards need to be more involved beyond “check-the-box” compliance as cyber risk is quickly morphing into entity risk, creating the need for a whole-company approach

• Cybersecurity is not just an IT problem; today its everyone’s problem, especially the board

• Ever-evolving U.S. regulatory landscape is getting more punitive to deal with;

• The time is now to implement internal cybersecurity measures

• Even if non currently apply to your organization, they soon will

• Look to NYDFS Cybersecurity Regulation, the CCPA, and NAIC Model Law

Compliance Strategies

• Conduct regular risk and vulnerability assessments to stay on top of the evolving risks out there today.

• Written information security, cybersecurity, and privacy policies and procedures must be in place regardless of your organization’s size;

• Written guidelines must include:

• How risks will be identified, evaluated and prioritized;

• How systems and controls will be evaluated and tested for adequacy

• How risks will be accepted, mitigated or otherwise controlled for;

• Company cannot mitigate all conceivable risks, but should address risks by either mitigating, accepting, or transferring to a cybersecurity Insurance Carrier for a fair premium

• Must develop Cybersecurity Program commensurate with:

• Size and complexity, as well as the type of data you collect, store or process; big difference between making widgets, and making aircraft parts for a DoD main contractor.

• Nature and scope of company’s activities will matter and vary greatly

• Third-party service providers have magnified risk identification and transfer issues; outsourcing to the cloud is fine, if you know and understand the risk

• Sensitivity of non-public information paramount

• Program developed based on risk-assessment coupled with regulatory landscape

• Risk and Vulnerability assessment results should be reviewed by Board of Directors

• Key areas: software protections & physical safeguards

• Third-party service provider/vendor due diligence policies must be implemented both contractually and on a risk-adjusted basis; some vendors are just more critical than others. Remember, you “own the cybersecurity” of your vendor for compliance purposes.
