The responsible authority (RA) or other appropriate authority must designate or appoint one employee to be the entity’s data practices compliance official (DPCO). Instead of making this appointment, the RA may choose to serve as the DPCO. The DPCO receives and responds to questions or concerns about data practices problems, including issues accessing data that the entity keeps. (Minnesota Statutes, section 13.05, subd. 13)
If you have questions about DPCOs, please contact our office.
