What this law does

Drafted with AI from the cited sources under the direction of UnGovr staff. UnGovr holds editorial responsibility for this page.

Article 11 requires the data controller to adopt the technical and organizational measures necessary to guarantee the integrity, confidentiality, and security of personal data and to detect intentional or unintentional deviations of private information, whatever the source of the risk.

Where the personal data concerned belong to a member of the National Police or the Army of Nicaragua and the required security measures fail or are not observed, article 11 requires the data controller to immediately inform the affected institution, though the Act states no equivalent duty to notify the Direccion de Proteccion de Datos Personales or the general public of a security breach.
