You must also have a data protection officer if your main business includes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>surveillance using cameras<\/li>\n<li>tracking and profiling on the internet<\/li>\n<li>data-driven or behavioral marketing<\/li>\n<li>location tracking (e.g. in mobile apps)<\/li>\n<li>monitoring of health, exercise and other well-being (e.g. through health apps or activity bracelets)<\/li>\n<li>profiling and scoring for risk assessments for determining creditworthiness or level of insurance premium.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Often these businesses lack the internal competence or financial resources to meet the requirements. Hiring an external data protection officer to fill this position can often be both more effective for the business&#8217;s work with data protection, as well as less costly.
