The European "General Data Protection Regulation" voted on April 27, 2016 has created a shock wave within the business world. As of 25 May 2018, this legislation will be able to punish companies that are not in line with the rules with very heavy fines of up to 20 million euros. To avoid this, it is important that you respect the rights of those concerned in accordance with the legislation and that you install the necessary technical and organizational measures to safeguard the confidentiality, integrity and availability of personal data.

Depending on your processing activities as a data controller or processor, you may be required to appoint a DPO (Data Protection Officer). This can be an internal employee or an external DPO.
