- recording breaches of data protection regulations or breaches of the protection of personal data and, if necessary, reporting them to the supervisory authority pursuant to Art. 33 of the GDPR
- safeguarding the rights of data subjects pursuant to Chapter III of the GDPR; in particular, processing requests for information from data subjects pursuant to Art. 15 of the GDPR
- advising on the introduction/adaptation of processing activities and processes; in particular (in cooperation with information security management) on the selection of suitable technical and organisational measures in accordance with Art. 32 of the GDPR
