Data Privacy Impact Assessment (DPIA)

Our experienced consultants can help your business conduct PIAs that comply with GDPR requirements, ensuring that you can move forward with confidence.

Why to conduct a DPIA?

Introducing new technology or changing the way you handle data can have an impact on your customers’ privacy. Conducting a PIA helps you identify potential privacy risks, evaluate the effects of data processing, and determine ways to mitigate any negative impacts on privacy

Privacy Impact Assessments are designed to help you identify, evaluate and mitigate privacy risks associated with the use of personal data. We’ll guide you through the process of conducting an assessment, ensuring that all required steps are taken and all necessary documentation is produced.

DPIA Step-by-Step

Necessity and proportionality

Identify and mitigate risks

Identify potential risks to individuals' rights and freedoms, and implement appropriate measures to mitigate or eliminate those risks with technical and organizational measures

When is it mandatory

High risk

Processing of sensitive data or large-scale processing of personal data, including profiling

New technologies

Processing of personal data through the use of new technologies such as AI (Artificial Intelligence) and IoT (Internet of Things)
