EU Representation services in the entire EU/EEA
Data Subject Access Requests (DSARs)
Requests from Data Protection Authorities (DPAs)
EU Representation services in the entire EU/EEA
We act in your name and on your behalf in the entire EU/EEA for GDPR purposes. We are located in Brussels, the EU’s capital, and are therefore close to EU institutions, decision-makers and influencers. We also have offices in Paris, Dublin, Amsterdam, Berlin and Madrid* to support you as closely as possible as your GDPR representative. As confirmed by the Guidelines of the European Data Protection Board, your EU representative must only be established in one – and only one – of the EU/EEA countries where the data subjects whose personal data your company processes are located. If your company processes personal data of individuals who are located in more than one EU country, then you can choose in which country to appoint your EU representative.
*Are you looking for another location? We have a solution! Contact us for more information.
Data Subject Access Requests (DSARs)
We handle an unlimited number of DSARs across the entire EU/EEA. By “handling”, we mean that we receive requests, perform identity checks (if you instruct us to do so), forward the requests to you (with a free English translation if needed), answer your questions as to best practices on how to respond to the requests and reply to the data subjects on your behalf (with, again, a free translation if needed), unless you choose to answer yourself. We aren’t just a mailbox or message forwarding service.
Requests from Data Protection Authorities (DPAs)
We handle an unlimited number of requests from DPAs in the EU/EEA. We understand that it can be quite daunting for companies to be contacted by DPA’s. That’s why our team handles such requests with great care and diligence (including free translation if needed).

Data Breach Notification Support
We assist and support you in the handling of an unlimited number of data breach notifications in the EU/EEA. Given that every data protection authority (DPA) has different requirements for data breach notifications (including filing in the country’s official language), the entire process can be very challenging – especially given the tight 72-hour deadline to notify a data breach to the DPAs. EDPO uses a unique and innovative digital data breach notification platform that consolidates all of the questions of all of the data breach notification forms in the entire EU/EEA in English and then translates the answers back into the original language of the respective national EU/EEA countries. We can therefore give you a huge head start in your data breach notification filings by reducing the time and resources – and stress! – required to complete your data breach notifications.
IMPORTANT NOTICE IN CASE OF DATE BREACH: Our contract will not automatically terminate in the event that you experience a data breach. We support you all the time and all the way.
Compliance Certificate
We provide you with a GDPR Article 27 Compliance Certificate based on data protection technology through a unique high-level encryption / decryption process (including Blockchain technology) which can be used on your website and on your company material.
Top-level security storage of your Article 30 register of processing activities
Your GDPR Article 30 record of processing activities is kept on a highly secure platform that is certified with the latest and most comprehensive in-depth security certification – ISO/IEC 27001:2013 – which covers its entire business, people, processes, procedures and platform. You don’t have an Article 30 record of processing activities? We’ll be more than happy to provide you with referrals of templates and/or experts who can help you set one up.
