Google Cloud: adding your DPO or EU representative for the GDPR

GDPR is a hot topic nowadays, and I was dealing with that a lot during the last time.

I am, as many of admins of the Google Cloud recently received a message from Google Cloud Platform support with instructions how to add DPO and EU representative to your company profile contacts.

But as so often, the instructions from Google were not so easy: the pages when they referred in their message have the missing buttons, and I was forced to dig through a lot of conflicting and leading to nowhere links and pages.

After I finally find the way to do it, I decided to share it with you to save your efforts and time. Here is this information:

Register DPO or EU representative for the GDPR

If your organization is required under the European Union's (EU) Data Protection Regulation to appoint a data protection officer (DPO), an EU representative, or both, register their details in your Google Admin console.

You must be signed in as a super administrator for this task.

Register your representatives

  1. Go to Company profile > Legal & compliance.
  2. Under Your data protection officer details or Your EU representative details, enter contact information, as required for your organization under the Data Protection Regulation Law.
  3. Click Save.
GDPR: About the DPO and EU representative

  • A data protection officer (DPO) is the person designated, where applicable, to facilitate compliance with the provisions of the GDPR. The GDPR defines the criteria and the conditions under which a data protection officer must be designated.
  • An EU representative is the person designated, where applicable, to represent customers not established in the EU with regard to their obligations under the GDPR.

THE PROBLEM

The collection of web browsing data will make most online advertising, web analytics, and third-party widgets fall short of the new European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). While compliance with the GDPR requires changes in almost every aspect of a business' website and third-party technologies, many GDPR consultants often overlook some areas. These include the highly technical and complicated elements like online tracking and profiling of website visitors. Your company could still be at risk of the huge and very stiff fines for GDPR non-compliance without critically examining every aspect of your website and making the necessary modifications in line with the new data law.

Depending on the level of users' data right infringement, the new General Data Protection Regulation allows your business/organisation whether big or small to be fined a sum as high as €20 million or 4% of your global annual revenue of the prior financial year.

Having your website audited and made GDPR compliant far exceeds the cost of facing a GDPR trial.
