Verify details

As in Norway, the GDPR breach articles apply in Iceland as national law through the EEA Agreement, with the same 72-hour authority deadline and the same high-risk trigger for notifying individuals. The supervisory authority is Personuvernd. Marked 'check' for the same reason as the Norwegian entry: the incorporation is well established, but the national procedural detail was not read in the Icelandic original.
