The French data protection authority has decided to expand the
availability of the existing simplified registration framework as a
result of multiple requests for registration filed with the French
data protection authority over the last few years in connection
with whistleblower programs that included in their scope alerts
relating to breaches of environment regulations,
anti-discrimination provisions, and provisions relating to health
and security in the workplace. The revised single authorization n°AU-004 (source
document in French) now is available for businesses that include in
their whistleblower scheme the aforementioned considerations.
Previously, data controllers had to file a full request for
authorization.
