  • Expect the Commission de l'informatique et des libertés (CIL), an independent administrative authority of nine members, to issue individual or regulatory decisions, warnings and referrals to the public prosecutor, and to receive complaints and petitions from data subjects.
  • Cooperate with a CIL verification or control mission on site, including any expert it brings, and pay the mission's costs yourself if you were the one who requested the control.
  • Take all useful measures to facilitate the CIL's mission, and do not obstruct its action for any reason.
  • Expect a data subject or their representative to be able to seek urgent court relief for a serious and immediate violation of their rights, and to seek damages for the moral or material harm they suffered.
  • Expect the CIL to pronounce a forfeitary fine of one percent of your prior year's tax-exclusive turnover for a first violation, rising to five percent for a repeat violation, on top of the fixed-range fines, confiscation, publication or activity-ban penalties it may add, and expect a violation of this law to be punished under the Penal Code's information-technology offense provisions.
