Data Protection Impact Assessment
A Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA) is a crucial process mandated by Article 35 of the GDPR for controllers who plan to engage in specific types of data processing, which TechGDPR can help you carry out.
What is a Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA)?
A Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA) is a crucial process mandated by Article 35 of the GDPR for controllers who plan to engage in specific types of data processing. These include:
- Implementing new technologies such as AI and automated processing, including profiling.
- Processing large-scale special categories of personal data.
- Systematic monitoring of publicly accessible areas on a large scale, such as CCTV surveillance.
- Any other scenarios as specified by supervisory authorities.

Tools and Methodologies
To ensure consistency and thoroughness, we utilize the various standardized templates for our DPIAs.
