Certainly, here is the English translation of the text about the European Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the role of the Data Protection Officer (DPO):

The new European Regulation on Data Protection (GDPR) requires, in some cases, the appointment of a DPO. For more information on the GDPR, you can consult this link.

The penalties for non-compliance range from 2% to 4% of the turnover, up to a maximum of €20,000,000.

The role of the DPO is extremely delicate and specific.

Among their responsibilities, we recall:

• Advisory tasks, regarding the Regulation and its application.
• Supervisory tasks of the implementation of the Regulation, and the policies of the Data Controller.
• Tasks related to staff training.
• Tasks of cooperation and collaboration with the Supervisory Authority.

The DPO is subordinate only to the Data Controller: therefore, it is commonly believed that an external figure to the company is preferable.

Furthermore, the DPO interacts with the following business functions:

• HR and training.
• ICT and design.
• Procurement office and contracts.
• Compliance and audit.
• Marketing and promotional activities.
• Legal and specific regulatory aspects. Real Comm offers you the turnkey DPO service. Our expert in the field will support you and take care of all the duties required of the DPO.
