HWData is your contact and advisor for in-house lawyers and data protection officers if you have short-term questions or need support.
Contact usIn some practical application questions you are not exactly sure or the question goes beyond your knowledge as an internal data protection officer? As lawyers with technical understanding, we have in-depth expertise to advise you in detail.
We will gladly advise youThe German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) stipulates that a data protection officer must be appointed if:
The internal data privacy officer serves as a point of contact for data privacy issues as well as an advisor for data privacy compliance in a company.
Data privacy officer training covers a general overview of data privacy, but not specific use cases of your own company. Therefore, the external support of internal data protection officers can be helpful.
When selecting an internal data privacy officer, you should pay attention to whether internal resources are free. In addition, the officer must have a neutral position in the company, a high sense of responsibility and good representational skills.
HWData will be happy to support your internal data protection officer with the implementation of the tasks or with practical questions.
Book an appointmentA company wants to run a campaign and it should be ensured in advance that everything is legally correct. Since often not only data protection is relevant, but also the right of personality or even the protection of minors.
HWData supports you, from the creation of training materials and the implementation of training and seminars to the control of legally compliant commissioned data processing. Our first step is to identify the relevant work steps for the first 12 months to initiate the following steps:
Data protection is a complex area of law. To fully penetrate this matter while a whole range of other tasks are still waiting in the company is almost impossible. In the past, internal data protection officers only had to “work toward” compliance; today, they have to advise, instruct and monitor compliance with data protection law.
An internal DPO who is not suitable due to a lack of professional qualifications is liable to a fine. Therefore, internal DPOs must receive regular training to be up to date. However, this is not enough to be able to answer every data protection question, which is why we are happy to support you with legal background and professional expertise.
