What it makes you log
Logging duty
In English: the controller must immediately inform the data subject of any security breach, at any stage of processing, that significantly affects their patrimonial or moral rights, so that they can take steps to defend them. Article 19 is a duty to notify the data subject only. It asks for no register of breaches and no report to the Secretaría, and names no reader of a record. The article carries no territorial clause, so the row carries no jurisdiction hook.

What this law does
Article 19 requires the responsable to inform the data subject immediately of a security breach occurring at any stage of processing personal data that significantly affects the data subject's patrimonial or moral rights, so the data subject can take the steps needed to defend their rights. The Law states no separate deadline measured in hours or days: immediacy of the breach itself is the period, and the duty runs to the affected data subject alone.
The Law states no duty to report a breach to the Secretaría; article 39 gives the Secretaría general investigative and sanctioning powers over compliance with this Law, but no provision requires a breach report to it specifically.
