FAQs:


What is a data controller? What is a data processor?

A data controller determines the purposes and means of processing of personal data. A data processor processes personal data on behalf of a data controller. G Suite customers will typically act as the data controller for any personal data they provide to Google in connection with their use of G Suite. Google is a data processor and processes personal data on behalf of the data controller when the data controller is using G Suite.

What are my obligations as a customer and data controller?

Data controllers are responsible for implementing appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure and demonstrate that any data processing is performed in compliance with the GDPR. Controllers' obligations relate to principles such as lawfulness, fairness and transparency, purpose limitation, data minimisation, and accuracy, as well as fulfilling data subjects' rights with respect to their data. You can find guidance related to your responsibilities under the GDPR by regularly checking the website of your national or lead data-protection authority under the GDPR (as applicable), as well as by reviewing publications by data-privacy associations, such as the International Association of Privacy Professionals (IAPP). You should also seek independent legal advice relating to your status and obligations under the GDPR, as only a lawyer can provide you with legal advice specifically tailored to your situation.

What is a Data Protection Officer or DPO?

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 DPO must be designated.

What is a Customer EU Representative?

A Customer EU Representative is the person designated, where applicable, to represent customers not established in the EU with regard to their obligations under the GDPR.
