The Office of the EDPS | European Data Protection Supervisor

The work of the EDPS is organised by units and sectors:

The Supervision and Enforcement unit who monitor and ensure the protection of personal data and privacy when the EU institutions and bodies process personal data and offer guidance when consulted by them on all matters relating to its processing
The Policy and Consultation unit who analyse proposals for legislation and formulate our advice to the EU legislator on these and new policy developments that may affect privacy;
The Technology and Privacy unit who ensure that our work properly assesses the technological implications for personal data protection;
The Information and Communication sector who communicate our work in clear language and make technical issues more accessible;
The Human Resources, Budget and Administration unit who plan, manage and monitor our human and financial resources; and
The Records Management Sector which provides internal operational support and coordinates records management activities.

In addition to the rules for those working for the EU institutions and bodies which are laid down in the Staff Regulations, the EDPS has a number of its own policies that its staff must adhere to:
