Why appoint an external DPO?
Companies that are legally required to appoint a Data Protection Officer – or choose to do so voluntarily – often face a choice: internal or external? Five reasons why an external DPO is a smart choice:
- Independence – no conflict of interest, objective advice
- Expertise – always up to date with current legislation
- Cost efficiency – you only pay for the services you actually need
- Reduced liability risk – professional implementation reduces your risk
- Relief – more focus on your core business

„We have had an excellent experience working with fox-on as our DPO vendor. They are highly professional, responsive, and consistently provide clear, practical guidance in a timely manner. Their ability to quickly interpret complex data protection requirements and translate them into straightforward actions has been invaluable.
The fox-on team is approachable and collaborative, making them easy to work with across a range of scenarios. Their advice is always pragmatic, well-considered, and aligned with regulatory expectations, which gives us confidence in our compliance processes.“
Tammy Miller
„fox-on has been an outstanding partner in our data protection journey. Their team is not only highly knowledgeable and professional, but also brings an expansive depth of legal insight. The platform is intuitive and easy to use, with actionable compliance templates that made implementation straightforward. Their ongoing education resources keep our team informed and confident. Most importantly, during a recent cyber event, the fox-on team was instrumental in guiding us through the response - ensuring both a swift resolution and full compliance. We couldn't have done it without them.“

I’ve been working with Alef and her team in a GDPR program development engagement with a client, and she is fantastic.“
Ralph Knupp
„We have engaged the fox-on team from the beginning of our efforts to achieve GDPR compliance for May 25, 2018, and to create a sustainable and scalable approach to continued compliance. The consulting support, training materials and DS-doku documentation tool have been exceptionally valuable up to now and we look forward to a continuing collaboration as we move forward in our GDPR compliance initiatives.“

„Without exaggeration, partnering with fox-on has helped me sleep better at night.“
Romina Gödde
„Die Zusammenarbeit mit fox-on ist von Anfang an klar und gleichzeitig sehr angenehm unkompliziert. Themen werden direkt angesprochen und man weiß sofort, was konkret zu tun ist. Statt theoretischer Vorgaben stehen Lösungen im Vordergrund, die sich im Arbeitsalltag tatsächlich umsetzen lassen. Besonders positiv ist uns aufgefallen, wie verständlich alles vermittelt wird, auch in den Schulungen. Das ist nah an der Praxis, greifbar und bleibt hängen. Datenschutz fühlt sich dadurch zum ersten Mal nicht mehr trocken an, sondern sinnvoll und gut integrierbar in die tägliche Arbeit.“
Dr. Folke Rauscher
„Datenschutz ist für uns kein Selbstzweck, sondern Teil eines professionellen Unternehmensauftritts. fox-on hat uns dabei geholfen, das Thema strukturiert und pragmatisch anzugehen – verlässlich, klar und immer auf Augenhöhe. Eine Zusammenarbeit, die ich uneingeschränkt empfehle.“
