A Joint Controller Data Processing Agreement is required when two or more organizations jointly determine the purposes and means of processing personal data under German law and GDPR. This document is essential for compliance with Article 26 GDPR and the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG), particularly in scenarios such as shared platforms, joint ventures, or collaborative projects involving personal data processing. The agreement must clearly delineate each controller's responsibilities for ensuring GDPR compliance, handling data subject requests, implementing security measures, and managing breach notifications. It should reflect the specific arrangements between the parties while ensuring transparency towards data subjects about their respective roles and responsibilities.
