Data protection officers at German companies see an urgent need for political action. 69 percent consider existing data protection laws\u2014particularly in the areas of cloud computing, international data processing, and social media\u2014to be unenforceable. 77 percent fear that the General Data Protection Regulation will lead to a decline in data protection standards. On the other hand, 79 percent rate the support they receive from management as adequate or better, and 86 percent view their collaboration with line departments as cooperative and goal-oriented. The results of the Data Protection Practices Study are clear.<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

So are companies and their data protection officers antagonistic towards each other? No. It is clear that data protection officers offer their companies considerable cost benefits. They enable the self-administration of data protection. Managing the procedures themselves is much more efficient than having to report each processing of personal data individually to the supervisory authorities and, if necessary, wait for approval. The study demonstrates the effectiveness and efficiency of this German model of corporate self-regulation. It is a committed plea for the introduction of the company data protection officer throughout Europe.<\/p>

These are the key findings of the study \"Data Protection Practice 2015\", conducted by the Bonn-based data protection consultancy 2B Advice GmbH and the Institute for Economic and Social Statistics at the Technical University of Dortmund. The study was presented today at the European Parliament in Brussels by 2B Advice to MEP Axel Voss, Vice-Chairman of the European Parliament's Legal Affairs Committee and legal policy spokesman for the CDU\/CSU group.<\/p>

\"The study provides a realistic insight into the work of data protection officers, the resources used and practical approaches for improvement,\" says lawyer Marcus Belke, Managing Director of 2B Advice.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
