The 12 Days of Christmas - DPO remix

What each festive period brings to Data Protection Officers around the world...

ONE panicked data breach call… (on a Friday night post 9pm and 2 glasses of mulled wine, natch)

TWO DPIA reviews…. (for projects launched 6 months ago but only just brought to your attention)

THREE French employee privacy queries …(merde)

FOUR days left to respond to that ICO letter

FIVE... MEGA.... DSARs

SIX consumer queries… (thinking a right to erasure covers everything. Again. Sigh)

SEVEN end of year PowerPoint presentations to give

EIGHT (Y) pages of a new ICO guidance document to read...(won't they ever break up for Christmas hols?)

NINE urgent DPAs 

TEN New credential stuffing attacks... (since the 1st day – help – more mulled wine please!)

ELEVEN internal skype calls on the new cookie banner

TWELVE days of unused holiday entitlement…
