Identify and reduce privacy risk before launching high-impact products, systems or processing activities.
Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs) are a critical component of privacy compliance under modern data protection frameworks. DPIAs help organizations identify and mitigate risks to individuals arising from the processing of personal data, particularly where new technologies, large-scale processing, or sensitive data are involved.
We provide structured DPIA services to assist organizations in evaluating privacy risks and implementing appropriate safeguards in accordance with applicable data protection laws, including the GDPR and the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023. Our approach focuses on legal defensibility, proportional risk assessment, and practical implementation of mitigation measures.
We work with your organization to understand the nature and scope of the proposed or existing data processing activities. This includes identifying the categories of personal data involved, purposes of processing, data flows, and applicable legal obligations. We assess whether a DPIA is required and define the scope of the assessment accordingly.
We analyse the flow of personal data within the organization, including collection points, storage locations, access controls, and third-party disclosures. This process enables us to identify areas of potential risk and evaluate the adequacy of existing data protection measures.
We conduct a structured assessment of risks to individuals arising from the processing activities. This includes evaluating risks such as unauthorized access, excessive data collection, inadequate security controls, unlawful processing, or potential harm to Data Subjects or Data Principals.
Based on the identified risks, we evaluate the likelihood and severity of potential impacts and recommend appropriate technical and organizational safeguards. Our recommendations are designed to ensure proportionality and compliance while remaining practical for implementation..
We prepare structured DPIA documentation that records the processing activities assessed, identified risks, mitigation measures, and compliance considerations. The documentation supports regulatory accountability and demonstrates that privacy risks have been systematically evaluated and addressed.
We work alongside legal, technology, security, HR, marketing and operational teams to make privacy an integrated business capability.
Understand processing, stakeholders, systems, contracts, controls and evidence.
Interpret the applicable requirements and evaluate risk, gaps and dependencies.
Build practical documentation, workflows, controls, training and ownership.
Review effectiveness, track remediation and prepare for future scrutiny.
