Why further training in data privacy for employees?

With the introduction and implementation of the European General Data Protection Regulation (EU GDPR) at the latest, a decisive legal framework has been created to better protect customer and user data and, above all, personal data. The GDPR goes even further than the existing BDSG. However, the requirements have actually been increasing for a long time due to digitalization and global competition.  

data privacy concerns not only sensitive customer data such as personal details or means of payment, but also your company data. With appropriate data protection measures, you not only protect your customers, but also your business success. After all, data misuse and data theft can result in serious financial damage. In the meantime, severe fines are also possible for non-compliance with applicable data protection regulations. For example, the EU GDPR provides for turnover-related penalties for larger companies if important data protection rules are disregarded.

To meet this need for data privacy and compliance, companies can rely on an external data protection officer. However, the far smarter solution is to build up your own in-house expertise with data privacy. This way, key areas of your company remain under your control.
