DPIA Tool

Description

A DPIA is a process that helps identify and minimize the data protection risks of a project.

Under the GDPR, a DPIA is mandatory for processing that presents a high risk to the rights and freedoms of data subjects. A DPIA is also recommended for any other project that involves the processing of personal data.

The DPIA Tool enables users to determine whether a DPIA should be conducted and, if required, how to produce a comprehensive assessment. The tool provides information on the obligation and proportionality of processing data, and details whether interested parties have been informed.

The tool is suitable for organizations of all sizes that are required to identify the personal data they process and need to align their practices with the GDPR.
