DATA PROTECTION POLICY
Goal of the Data Protection Policy
The goal of the data protection policy is to depict the legal data protection aspects in one summarising document. It can also be used as the basis for statutory data protection inspections, for example by a customer within the scope of commissioned processing. This is not only to ensure compliance with the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Data Protection Act (DPA) 2018, but also to provide proof of compliance.
