What do I have to do if my bank account number may have been leaked?
Did you receive a message from an organisation that they have become the victim of a data breach? And that bank account numbers have been leaked as a result? This is what you can do in such case:
- Be alert to phone calls or messages by email, text or WhatsApp in which people try to obtain information from you, such as your PIN code. Your bank will never ask you to provide a certain code or to send your bank card to a certain address, and certainly not in this way.
- Pay frequently attention to any debits from your bank accounts. Criminals may use your bank account for buying things.
- For more information see Veiligbankieren.nl (in Dutch).
Where can I ask questions about the obligation of my organisation to report a data breach to the supervisory authority?
Do you want to ask the Dutch DPA a question about reporting data breaches? Then you can call 088 - 1805 255. You pay your usual telephone costs.
Note: This number is only intended for organisations that have questions about the data breach notification obligation.

Bankruptcy
In almost every bankruptcy, the estate contains personal data, such as customer files, member files or personnel files. Insolvency practitioners must handle this data with due care. They must also comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
