Describe the issue:

Data breach disclosure laws have been rapidly enacted in various states as well 
as in the EU in response to the increasing number of data braches. A section 
should be added to 11.1.4.2 "Incident Response" to briefly explain that in some 
cases, if personal customer data is taken, the company might be legally 
required to report it.

A listing of laws for various states in the US can be found here:

The latest EU directive concerning data breach disclosure is here:
http://eur-lex.europa.eu/LexUriServ/LexUriServ.do?uri=CELEX:32002L0058:EN:NOT

There may be other laws, but this is what I could find after a cursory web 
search.
