When Do You Need a GDPR Representative?

You need a GDPR Representative if:

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has established certain requirements for organisations handling personal data. If your company operates outside the UK but offers goods or services to individuals within the UK or monitors the behaviour of individuals in the UK, you may need to appoint a GDPR Representative. This representative serves as a local point of contact for the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) and ensures compliance with UK GDPR.

Your Business Operates Outside the UK

If your organisation’s physical presence and operations are situated outside the United Kingdom, you fall under the scope of requiring a GDPR Representative if you conduct business activities involving UK residents’ personal data.

You Offer Services to Individuals in the UK.

Whether your offerings involve paid products or services or are provided free of charge, if you extend them to individuals within the UK, the UK GDPR mandates the appointment of a GDPR Representative.

You Monitor Behaviour of Individuals in the UK

If your data processing activities involve tracking, analysing, or monitoring the behaviour of individuals located in the UK, you are subject to GDPR representation requirements. This applies to various scenarios, including online behaviour tracking for analytics or targeted advertising.

Public Authority: If your organisation is a public authority, there might be instances where GDPR representation is not obligatory.

Occasional, Low-Risk Processing: If your data processing activities are sporadic, entail minimal risks to individuals’ data protection rights, and do not involve extensive utilisation of special category or criminal offense data, GDPR representation exemptions might apply.
