EU GDPR Check
Ensure greater protection when managing sensitive data with our comprehensive Data Protection Check.
The EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the new version of the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) have been in force since 2018. For companies, this resulted in numerous requirements in the handling of personal data in order to meet the legal requirements. With the help of our comprehensive GDPR consulting and individual analysis of measures, we support you in the successful implementation.
In the digital business environment, small and medium-sized companies face numerous risks when dealing with personal data. But an external data protection review is often designed for large companies. This is exactly where our GDPR check comes in because it is a cost-effective and time-saving alternative that is tailored to the needs of your company. Contact our experts today for your GDPR check!

- Avoid reputational damage and reputational loss due to the incorrect handling of sensitive information.
- Save legal costs due to high fines, liability for damages and personal liability of those responsible with GDPR-compliant data protection.
- Avoid claims for injunctive relief by the supervisory authority.
- Prevent loss of rights, for example in insurance
How to check your GDPR compliance
Before the actual GDPR check in your company, our DEKRA experts check your company website regarding the data protection requirements (data protection declaration, imprint). On site, our experts will then record all the weak points and risks in your company on the subject of data protection in an interview. Together with the management and/or the data protection officer, it is checked which gaps exist organizationally, process-wise or technically. In a detailed audit report, you will finally receive the result of whether the company already sufficiently complies with the requirements of the General Data Protection Regulation and where risks and action are needed.
