Some organisations appoint a DPO without checking whether one is required, and others appoint one whose independence and resources are never written down. This system starts with the Article 37 assessment and ends that stage with a signed record of whether a DPO is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAppointment covers internal, group and external DPOs, with selection, terms of reference, an appointment letter and external DPO terms. Independence and conflict policies, direct access to the highest management level and access matrices protect the role. An operating manual, work plans, advice records, review checklists by topic, a monitoring programme and reports carry it into daily practice. The system is consistent on one point: the DPO advises and monitors, but never owns or approves processing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe system rests on Regulation (EU) 2016\/679 (GDPR), Articles 37 to 39, with an alignment checklist and matrix for the Article 29 Working Party guidelines on DPOs (WP243 Rev.01), which the European Data Protection Board has endorsed. AGS is independent and is not affiliated with the European Data Protection Board or any supervisory authority.
