EU Representative
The challenge
Exempt from GDPR? Think again
Companies based outside of the European Union processing personal data by either offering goods or services to individuals in the EU, or by monitoring the behaviour of individuals in the EU, are subject to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). This applies in respect of both controllers and processors.
No EU base? You need a representative
Under GDPR Article 27, nonEU organisations must appoint a representative established within the EEA. This authorised contact must manage GDPR obligations, including maintaining records and responding to supervisory authorities, and requires solid GDPR expertise.
Avoid real penalties
Failure to appoint an EU Representative invites fines and regulatory conflict. Partnering with one ensures you meet GDPR standards and shields you from enforcement action.
The service
BH Consulting offer an EU Representative service for client companies in line with the European Data Protection Board (EDPB) guidelines. Our Data Protection Consultants who act as EU Representatives are subject matter experts capable of acting as a point of contact to efficiently communicate with data subjects and cooperate with the supervisory authorities concerned.
