The Baden-Württemberg State Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information released a code of conduct for processors, offering standardized rules to support companies in applying the EU General Data Protection Regulation. Processors following the code submit to regular monitoring by a body accredited by the LfDI, Commissioner Stefan Brink said. "Self-regulation is an excellent opportunity to tailor data processing to the needs of industries — the GDPR provides this opportunity, which we are now implementing," Brink said.
