> if you are outside the EU, you need to hire someone inside the EU as a representative / contact point for GDPR issues. And enforce this how? You get arrested upon setting foot in the EU when failing to do so? This would only work in Germany and maybe France. The EU doesn't have its own police, they rely on states cooperating. This is why Puigdemont is free to move in the EU (except Spain and Germany where he was arrested), despite of an arrest warrant issued in Spain.
