With the first officially accredited data protection certification in accordance with Article 42 GDPR, you finally have the opportunity to transparently communicate your high standards to the outside world.

Increase trust

Business partners and interested parties are becoming increasingly aware of the data protection standards of processors. With the officially accredited EuroPriSe certificate, you ensure transparency and make it unmistakably clear that your data processing is 100% GDPR-compliant.

Minimize your risks

Certification with the EuroPriSe data protection seal minimizes the risk of breaches of applicable data protection regulations for you. During the certification process, all your processes are checked against the highest GDPR standards. In addition, the certificate also has a mitigating effect on fines if a fine is imposed on your company.

With EuroPriSe certification, you as a processor can provide transparent and objective proof of your privacy compliance in accordance with the GDPR.

The EuroPriSe certification process for processors

The start of your certification process

  • The first step is to specify the target of evaluation (ToE).
  • You then carry out a privacy-specific risk analysis and a maturity assessment of the processing operations to be certified.

EuroPriSe certifies your company

  • Once the contract has been successfully concluded, the legal and technical evaluation begins.
  • In the subsequent assessment phase, our teams of specialists decide whether your activities as a processor comply with the legal and technical requirements of the GDPR.

Congratulations

  • You receive the officially accredited EuroPriSe certification in accordance with Article 42 GDPR
  • During the validity of the certification, surveillance activities ensure that the object of certification continues to meet all relevant requirements.

After certification is before recertification

  • Three years after the certificate has been issued, the first recertification is due so that you can continue to benefit from the numerous advantages of your EuroPriSe certification.
  • We guide you through this process step by step too.

Improving the global level of privacy

The EuroPriSe vision

Initiated by the EU in 2007

The EU Commission launches the project and supports the development with 1.3 million euros in funding. At that time, it was still five years until the first draft of the GDPR. The aim was to create an EU-wide certification mark.

2014 Transition to EuroPriSe GmbH

The transition from a government certification body to a private company formed the basis for further development towards becoming the first company in Germany to offer accredited certification in accordance with Article 42 GDPR.

2022 a key milestone

In October 2022, the EuroPriSe criteria catalog is approved by the responsible supervisory authority. This makes EuroPriSe Cert GmbH, which is now based in Bonn, the first German company to achieve this step.

2023 Starting signal as pioneer

After EuroPriSe Cert became the first company in Germany to receive accreditation as a certification body for privacy certification in accordance with the GDPR in December 2023, the corresponding certificate was also issued by the DAkkS in January 2024.

Mai 2024: Erste Zertifizierung

Nur wenige Monate nach der Akkreditierung als Zertifizierungsstelle verleiht die EuroPriSe Cert erstmals eine Zertifizierung nach Artikel 42 DSGVO an RISER ID Services GmbH.

Juli 2024: Europäisches Datenschutzsiegel

Ein lang ersehntes Ziel wird Realität: Der Europäische Datenschutzausschuss gibt bekannt, dass die EuroPriSe-Zertifizierung von nun auch in der gesamten EU sowie EEA anerkannt ist.
