External Data Protection Officer (DPO)

 

Companies with 20 or more employees who use a computer (PC, notebook, iPad, etc.) must appoint a data protection officer (DPO). Through our cooperation company we can provide you with an external data protection officer for your company. In addition, we can provide you with competent advice and support on all data protection issues.

The data protection officer informs, advises and monitors compliance with GDPR and other data protection regulations in your company.

According to the GDPR, every company must maintain a data protection management system appropriate to its operations. The core elements are the list of processing activities (as controller and  as supplier/processor), the information to be provided to data subjects, the process for data subject rights (information, correction, deletion, restriction of processing, data transferability) as well as the process in the event of a data breach and the security concept (TOMs). Companies must be able to demonstrate compliance with the requirements of the GDPR at all times (accountability).

Violations of the GDPR are subject to severe fines of up to € 20 million or up to 4% of the total worldwide annual turnover, whichever is higher. In addition, the data subjects affected (e.g. customers or employees) may also claim damages.
