ISO 27701 certification in Nuremberg at a glance
A processor in Nuremberg may serve hundreds of controllers, each with its own audit questionnaire. ISO/IEC 27701 lets the processor answer once, in a form an accredited certification body can test. It builds a privacy information management system on top of ISO 27001, defining controls for purposes and lawful bases, data subject requests, records of processing, processor and transfer arrangements, and breach handling. For the city's software and data-processing firms, and for insurers, banks and market-research companies that hold consumer data, it provides structured evidence that supports GDPR work without replacing legal assessment. Served from Sterling's Frankfurt office, Sterling extends your existing system and collects the evidence. The legal framework is on the Germany page.

ISO 27701 in Nuremberg: questions clients ask
Why do Nuremberg processors consider ISO 27701?
Because controllers keep asking the same privacy questions, and one independent certificate can answer many of them. It shows a tested privacy management system, though it is not a legal ruling. Ask your largest controllers whether they accept it in place of their own audits.
Is ISO 27701 aimed only at processors?
No, it has controls for both roles, so a Nuremberg insurer acting as controller can use it as well. The roles you play determine which controls apply, and the scope statement must say so. Many organisations are both controller and processor for different activities.
