It's one of sixteen states. Office 365 (and Windows 10) have been identified as not being able to be used in accordance with data privacy laws in Germany time and time again. So far, nobody got fined for using either software yet.

Do you know any authorities using Windows 10 who handle personal data? Last I looked the BSI (Bundesamt für Sicherheit in der Informationstechnik) hasn't blessed Windows 10 as appropriate over battles with MS on telemetry.
Munich is switching away from Limux towards Windows 10, which I assume also includes workstations that handle PII.
I'd be very surprised to find any authorities using such a recent version of Windows.
Maybe it's a start.
