Art. 27 EU Representative (GDPR) service
Organizations outside of the EU need to appoint a representative in the EU if they offer goods or services in the EU or monitor behavior of people in the EU. By appointing TechGDPR as a representative, you have a competent partner by your side.
The Art. 27 EU representative
The Art. 27 EU representative is your gateway to compliance to the GDPR when you are not based in the EU. When available, you can appoint your legal entity in the EU as your EU representative, but if you don’t have this the options are more limited. TechGDPR accepts appointments as Art. 27 EU Representative, and our GDPR Consultants and Technology Experts will maintain compliance records on your behalf and facilitate communication.
Located in Berlin, Germany, TechGDPR is both surrounded by some of the most innovative startups and technology companies, but also situated in probably the most challenging regulatory environment with regards to privacy. Germany is known to be one of the first countries (in 1970) with the strictest and most detailed data privacy laws in the world. As such we are optimally positioned to represent foreign entities guaranteeing a high level of regulatory compliance and the prestige that comes with it.
As your Art. 27 EU representative, TechGDPR will assess your data processing activities and maintain a record of them pursuant to Article 30 of the GDPR.
