Data protection coordinator<\/h1>\n

What does data protection coordinator mean?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Just like the data protection auditor, the tasks of the data protection coordinator are not regulated by law, unlike those of the data protection officer. In most cases, data protection coordinators are responsible for implementing data protection regulations in practice, i.e. in particular for creating the processing directory. Ideally, at least one person per department\/specialist area is appointed as data protection coordinator and forms a data protection team together with the data protection officer and the other coordinators.<\/p>\n

Practical example<\/h2>\n

If a company commissions an external service provider with data processing, the latter acts as data protection coordinator and a corresponding contract is concluded.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
