German Privacy Act (BDSG-new)

Known as the German Privacy Act ( Bundesdatenschutzgesetz – BDSG ), or the German Privacy Act (BDSG-new).

The BDSG-new complements, specifies and modifies the GDPR. It provides rules for specific topics, e.g. for data processing in the context of employment, the designation of a data protection officer (DPO), scoring and credit checks as well as profiling.

These additional restrictions seem to focus some attention on the transport of data across German borders, which is a category of regulation referred to as data residency, or data sovereignty.

Germany’s data protection laws are similar to China’s PIPL law regarding strict compliance with data residency policies. About 133 countries worldwide have established data protection regulations to secure citizens’ personal information.
