GDPR KIT · EDITION 2026 · GERMAN OR AUSTRIAN VERSION

GDPR Compliance Kit

Audit-ready data protection documentation: record of processing activities, technical and organisational measures, processing on behalf of a controller, DPIA, data subject rights, deletion concept and personal data breach notification — with a legal reference at every obligation. The GDPR applies in the same way across the EU; the national provisions alongside it do not. You choose your jurisdiction and receive the version for your country — Germany (BDSG, TDDDG) or Austria (DSG, TKG 2021).

ARE WE IN SCOPE?

The GDPR has no employee threshold — it applies as soon as you process personal data.

Anyone processing personal data must be able to demonstrate compliance with the principles — accountability applies regardless of company size Art. 5(2) GDPR, and the controller must implement appropriate technical and organisational measures and be able to demonstrate them Art. 24(1) GDPR. The frequently cited 250-employee limit for the record of processing activities exempts hardly anyone: it does not apply where the processing is likely to result in a risk to the rights and freedoms of data subjects, where it is not occasional, or where it involves special categories of data Art. 30(5) GDPR. On the data protection officer the two countries diverge: in Germany, in addition to the cases in Art. 37 GDPR, a threshold applies where as a rule at least 20 persons are constantly engaged in the automated processing of personal data § 38(1) BDSG; Austria has no such numerical threshold — there the duty to designate follows directly from the GDPR, supplemented by confidentiality and freedom from instructions § 5 DSG.

Inside the kit: a threshold analysis for the DPIA and a guided data protection officer assessment — each criterion with its legal reference, in the version for your jurisdiction.

WHY TWO VERSIONS

The GDPR is EU law — the rules alongside it are not.

🇩🇪 Germany — BDSG

  • A data protection officer is additionally required as soon as, as a rule, at least 20 persons are constantly engaged in the automated processing of personal data § 38(1) BDSG
  • Supervision of non-public bodies by the authorities competent under Land law § 40(1) BDSG
  • Access to terminal equipment (cookies) only with consent — except where strictly necessary § 25 TDDDG
  • Additional administrative offence with a fine of up to EUR 50,000 alongside Art. 83 GDPR § 43(2) BDSG

🇦🇹 Austria — DSG

  • No numerical threshold for the data protection officer — the duty to designate follows directly from Art. 37 GDPR; confidentiality and freedom from instructions apply in addition § 5 DSG
  • Supervision by the Datenschutzbehörde (Austrian Data Protection Authority) as the national supervisory authority under Art. 51 GDPR § 18(1) DSG
  • Access to terminal equipment only with actively and informedly given consent — except where strictly necessary § 165(3) TKG 2021
  • Administrative offence with a fine of up to EUR 50,000 alongside Art. 83 GDPR § 62(1) DSG

The fine framework is the same across the EU — up to EUR 20 million or 4 % of total worldwide annual turnover, and up to EUR 10 million or 2 % for documentation and security obligations (Art. 83(4) and (5) GDPR). What differs are the supervisory authority, the cookie rule and the national supplementary provisions. That is why your kit comes as one version per country: you buy DE or AT — no mixed “DACH” templates.

Legal references in the Word and Excel documents checked against the official full texts (EUR-Lex · gesetze-im-internet.de · RIS) — edition 2026, legal status August 2026.

FREQUENTLY ASKED

In short.

Do we need the kit even if we are not required to designate a data protection officer?

Yes. The documentation duties do not depend on that designation: the record of processing activities (Art. 30 GDPR), technical and organisational measures (Art. 32 GDPR) and the demonstration required by accountability (Art. 5(2) GDPR) apply irrespective of it. In Germany the duty to designate is added where, as a rule, at least 20 persons are constantly engaged in automated processing (§ 38(1) BDSG); Austria has no such numerical threshold (§ 5 DSG).

Does the kit also cover data transfers to the United States?

It contains a transfer impact assessment, a third-country transfer register and an overview of adequacy decisions. For the United States, Implementing Decision (EU) 2023/1795 on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework applies; it covers only organisations included in the Data Privacy Framework List. The action against that decision was dismissed by the General Court of the European Union on 3 September 2025 (T-553/23); the appeal is pending before the Court of Justice as C-703/25 P, and no decision had been issued as at the legal status of August 2026.

How do I buy?

Choose Basic, Plus or Complete, confirm that you are buying as a business and pay by card or SEPA direct debit via Stripe, or by bank transfer against invoice; you receive an invoice with VAT ID. We deliver the personalised kit as a download link within 48 hours of receipt of payment (working days). No subscription. Questions or a custom quote: contact form.

Is the kit kept up to date when the law changes?

Yes — for 12 months from delivery you receive updated document versions when relevant law changes. Afterwards, existing customers receive further updates on preferential terms; the delivered documents stay with your company permanently: perpetual right of use, no lock, no account.

Germany or Austria — what do I get?

You choose your jurisdiction when ordering and receive the version for your country. There is deliberately no mixed "DACH" version.

Does the kit replace legal advice?

No. The kit is standardised compliance documentation with legal references — no advice on your individual case. For the final sign-off we recommend a review by your legal counsel where needed.

Legal basis and status

Legal status of the documents: 17.08.2026. The basis is Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR), together with the BDSG and the TDDDG in Germany and the DSG and the TKG 2021 in Austria. The legal references in the Word and Excel documents have been checked against the official full texts. Standardised documentation, not legal advice in individual cases.
