DPIA & Risk Assessment
The Data Protection Impact Assessment under GDPR Art. 35 as a guided process — with an AI-assisted draft, residual-risk calculation and a documented DPO recommendation, linked to the record of processing activities.
A DPIA that stays linked to the processing record.
Every DPIA is linked to a processing activity from the record of processing activities (RoPA) — the impact assessment isn't written in isolation, but in the context of what's actually being processed. Risk assessment follows a likelihood-×-impact model; residual risk results from gross risk and the planned mitigating measures.
An AI-assisted draft proposes initial wording for purpose, risks and mitigations based on the linked processing activity — a starting point for review, not a substitute for expert judgment.
Every DPIA receives a documented DPO recommendation with an outcome (for example, approval subject to a condition) and is sealed with a completion date — traceable evidence of which processing was approved, when, and on what basis.
What DPIA & Risk Assessment delivers.
Linked to the processing record
Every DPIA is tied to a concrete processing activity from the RoPA — not a standalone document.
Residual risk under a likelihood × impact model
Gross risk from likelihood and impact, residual risk after accounting for mitigating measures.
AI-assisted draft
Initial wording for purpose, risks and measures based on the linked processing activity.
Documented DPO recommendation
The data protection officer's outcome and conditions are part of the sealed DPIA.
Sealed with a completion date
Every completed DPIA is sealed as evidence and traceable over time.
From a processing activity to an approved DPIA.
An end-to-end flow instead of a separate Word document.
In progress
DPIA created and linked to a processing activity, AI draft available.
Risk assessment
Likelihood and impact recorded, residual risk calculated after mitigating measures.
Completed
DPO recommendation documented, DPIA sealed with a completion date.
How DPIA & Risk Assessment works.
Link a processing activity
Create a DPIA against an existing RoPA processing activity.
Assess the risk
Record likelihood, impact and mitigating measures — use the AI draft as a starting point.
Document the DPO recommendation & seal
Record the outcome and conditions, seal the DPIA with a completion date.
A core building block for these regimes.
Data Protection Impact Assessment under Art. 35 where processing is likely to result in high risk.
