Doing a Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA) feels like a headache.
It's confusing and takes up so much time, pulling you away from what you really want to focus on in your business.
You worry about getting it wrong because if you miss something, it could mean legal issues with your partners and customers, or worse.
It's frustrating having to dig through all your data practices, and the thought of not doing it right keeps you up at night, fearing for your business's reputation and your own peace of mind.
If you keep struggling with your DPIA, you're looking at a world of trouble.
You might face hefty fines that could cripple your finances.
Worse, your business could get a bad name, with people thinking you can't be trusted with their data.
Imagine the stress of constant worry, the time wasted on fixing mistakes, and the potential loss of customers who take their business elsewhere because they doubt your ability to keep their information safe.
It's about your peace of mind and the future of your business.
At the first step, we need some basic information like your company and contact details, a brief description of your activities that requires a DPIA, and how you handle the personal data you collect. We'll provide the necessary context for the report, ask you some simple questions, and even offer solutions on how to reduce the privacy risks you might be facing.
Nothing. We ask you simple questions so you don’t need to make extra effort or learn new skills.
Our servers are located in the EU. All data is protected by state of the art data encryption methods. Our engineering team includes a world class information security expert, so we know what we are doing. Only the people who need work on your project can have access to the data. We delete your data after the service is delivered.
We have a very narrow focus, which means we know exactly what we're doing and can get things done quickly. In fact, producing a DPIA report only takes a few hours, but since we use actual human expertise rather than AI-generated templates, we're constrained by human hours and the number of concurrent orders. We adjust the price on our website now and then based on demand and the cost of the experts we collaborate with.
Yes we do. If something goes wrong and you are unable to get a good quality DPIA report quickly, we will refund your purchase.
A Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA) is a systematic process used to identify and minimize the data protection risks of a project or processing activity. It involves evaluating how data is collected, stored, transferred, and protected, ensuring that potential privacy risks are identified and mitigated. DPIAs are essential for ensuring compliance with data protection regulations such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
A DPIA is necessary whenever a data processing activity is likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of individuals. This includes, but is not limited to, large-scale processing of sensitive data, systematic monitoring of public areas, and processing data involving vulnerable groups. It's also required for new projects or significant changes to existing processes that involve personal data.

In practice, a DPIA is usually done in collaboration with various pe, including data protection officers, IT professionals, legal advisors, and other relevant parties within the organization. External consultants might be brought in to assist with the DPIA.
