Datenschutz-Puls: what matters in data protection law, every two weeks.
The starting point
IT service providers and software companies process their clients' data on their behalf. That makes them a permanent area of risk, both technically and contractually. We draft and revise IT security concepts, put data processing on a sound contractual footing and provide the formally appointed data protection officer who answers to your clients and to the supervisory authority.
Challenges and solutions
Three issues that come up again and again in your industry, and how we resolve them.
Challenge 01
Our solution
We support new products, features and business models from an early stage, with privacy by design, data protection impact assessments and clear approval processes, without slowing innovation unnecessarily.
Challenge 02
Our solution
We review providers, data processing agreements and third-country transfers, assess cloud and AI set-ups and create legally sound structures for scalable technology platforms.
Challenge 03
Our solution
We support you with data protection questionnaires, TOMs, audits and contract negotiations, and make sure data protection does not become a deal-breaker in sales.
The difference
Data protection management software can simplify processes and support documentation. It does not take on the statutory role of the data protection officer. As a law firm, we provide a personally appointed data protection officer and combine the role with legal expertise. If you wish, we also give you access to our Privacy Hub at no extra cost.
A person who stands up for your company
We provide a real data protection officer who is personally responsible for your company and supports you with every data protection question.
Formally appointed data protection officer
Personal support from a lawyer
Data protection expertise for more than 20 years
Communication with the supervisory authorities
Personal liability
Insurance cover of more than EUR 40 million
Management software as a supporting tool
A tool that belongs to no one
A platform can support you with organisation and documentation. It does not replace a personally responsible data protection officer.
No assumption of liability
No insurance cover
Onboarding and migration to new software
No formally appointed data protection officer from the platform
No assumption of the personal statutory role
Scope of services
Official appointment as data protection officer, notified to the supervisory authority. We communicate with supervisory authorities and your customers. Advice from specialised lawyers, not a call centre.
Complete, always up-to-date data protection documentation, including records of processing activities. An annual data protection audit. When the supervisory authority asks, everything is ready.
We train employees and managers in data protection, AI and information security with a practical focus. The content is clear, current and, on request, tailored to your organisation: online, on site or via the legal data academy.
Our work as external data protection officer is insured for up to EUR 40 million through a consortium of ERGO and Nürnberger Versicherung. Cover of this size is exceptional in the German market and provides additional security, particularly on complex matters with liability implications.
Regular data protection training for employees and managers. Practical, clear and current: online, on site or via the legal data academy.
Alongside personal support, you can use digital tools for your data protection management if you wish. The legal data Privacy Hub is the central platform for documentation, tasks, measures and evidence.
How it works
Initial consultation
20 minutes. We clarify the obligation, scope and costs.
Review
We check your processes and systems for GDPR compliance.
Appointment
We are formally appointed and notified to the supervisory authority.
Ongoing support
Documentation, audits, training and contact with the authorities are handled by us.
When it matters
Our data protection officers and lawyers are personally liable. Together with ERGO and Nürnberger Versicherung, our work is insured with cover of more than EUR 40 million. In the event of a data breach, you can reach our emergency centre around the clock, and notification to the authority within 72 hours is assured. And because we are a law firm, we can also represent you in proceedings.
What it costs
Fixed fee, not hourly rates
You receive an individual fixed-fee offer. No open-ended hourly budget, no additional charges.
Cancel at any time
Our engagement is based purely on trust and can be terminated at any time. No minimum term.
One point of contact
You speak to the same lawyer every time, not to a changing support team.
