About

The UDPO (Union of Data Protection Officers) is an association that promotes the profession of personal data protection experts and consolidates it through certification.

The UDPO offers its certified members the professional business card.

Certification is open to DPOs and RGPD referents so that people who are part of this IT and Freedom network can also make the most of their experience.
