What’s a DPO?
Data protection officer (DPO) is a role required by the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) responsible for overseeing data protection strategy and related measures necessary to ensure compliance.
Why a DPO?
A DPO can oversee an efficient privacy management and keep risks relating to privacy to a minimum
Do I need to appoint a DPO?
Appointment of a DPO is not mandatory for all companies (for some it its!).
However, due to extensive obligations under GDPR, each and every company needs someone (regardless of the formal name of such position) taking care regularly of the data protection/privacy matters. For more details on the subject please drop us an email at adriana.neagu@lawmatters.eu.
What are the benefits of outsourcing the DPO’s activity?
- Tailored cost solution for having a DPO, much more effective as compared to having an inhouse DPO
- No labor law constrains whenever you want to hire or change the DPO
- Access to specific expertise in due time with no additional training costs
- Compliance with the independence requirement for a DPO under GDPR
