How to find the right external data protection officer

“Quality, not compromise” is the premise when choosing a data protection partner

Qualification
Data protection advice belongs to experienced hands. Look for certifications from established bodies such as TÜV, DEKRA or GDD. Anyone who doesn't disclose qualifications shouldn't be your first choice.
Specialization
“We advise all industries” sounds good, but is rarely realistic for small providers. Good providers focus on specific company sizes and requirements instead of covering everything and everyone.
Insurance? Absolutely.
External data protection officers are responsible for their advice, but only with proof of insurance are you covered in an emergency. If this is missing, care should be taken.
Price vs. performance
Low prices are tempting, but they are often a warning sign. Pay attention to whether the service offered fits the price and to what extent processes are automated.
Check references
See what other customers are saying. Whether Google, Proven Expert or other platforms: Good providers have nothing to hide and impress with real voices.
Association = Responsibility
Memberships in recognized data protection associations show that the provider is networked on the subject and takes standards seriously. A good sign of long-term quality.
The website speaks volumes
Is the site transparent, professional and GDPR-compliant? Is it clearly communicated who is behind the offer? That also says a lot about the provider.
Customer service: Preferably discreet
Even the initial contact provides information: Is competent advice or aggressive sales? Reputable providers answer your questions without pressure.
