Germany Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG) s38: s 38 Private bodies designate a data protection officer at 20 persons, or regardless of size for high-risk processing

In addition to GDPR Art. 37(1)(b) and (c), controllers and processors must designate a data protection officer where they as a rule constantly employ at least 20 persons in the automated processing of personal data, and regardless of headcount where they carry out processing requiring a data protection impact assessment under GDPR Art. 35 (for example systematic employee monitoring) or process data commercially for transfer, anonymised transfer or market or opinion research. Section 6(4) (dismissal protection, only where designation is mandatory), 6(5) sentence 2 (confidentiality) and 6(6) (right to refuse testimony) apply.
