GDPR is the abbreviation for the General Data Protection Regulation. This will make data protection in the European Union unified but also more intensified.
This regulation focuses on the right of individuals to protect their personal data.
Yes, because according to Art. 3 GDPR, not only companies based in the EU must comply with the General Data Protection Regulation, but also all companies outside the EU that offer their services or goods in the EU.
Violations of the GDPR can be punished with maximum penalties of up to € 20 million or up to four percent of worldwide turnover, whichever is higher. The supervisory authorities can investigate the companies concerned and request relevant information. The supervisory authorities must ensure that the sanctions are effective, proportionate and dissuasive in each individual case.
Furthermore, due to data protection violations, warnings can be issued, for example, from consumer protection associations or the parties concerned. Last but not least, companies can also be obliged to comply with the GDPR on the basis of bilateral agreements, which can lead to claims for damages or contractual penalties in the event of non-compliance.
Companies that are established outside the EU but operate in the EU must, in accordance with Art. 27 (1) GDPR, designate in writing an EU Data Protection Representative.
In accordance with Art. 27 (4) GDPR, the EU Data Protection Representative serves, in particular, supervisory authorities or data subjects as the point of contact for all requests in connection with the GDPR, either in addition to or instead of the person responsible.
The EU Data Protection Representative must be established in an EU member state in accordance with Art. 27 (3) GDPR. EU Data Protection Representative can be both a natural and a legal person.
The designation of the EU Data Protection Representative must be made in writing in accordance with Art. 27 (1) GDPR.
With the appointment of an EU data protection representative, the liability of the represented company does not become invalid. According to Article 27 (5) of the GDPR, the represented companies themselves bear the responsibility for compliance with the GDPR.
The EU Data Protection Representative must be named in your privacy policy.
No, the EU Data Protection Representative is just one additional contact point for inquiries within the EU. Of course, if you would like to seek legal advice, you are welcome to assign us separately. We are glad to support you!
