Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA)

Systematic analysis of privacy risks and mitigations for AI systems.

Definitions (9)

A structured assessment that identifies, evaluates and documents privacy and data-protection risks posed by an AI system and the measures to mitigate them; DPIAs are mandatory for medium- and high-impact deployments and must be attached to procurement and authorization files. The Guide aligns DPIA requirements with Argentina's data protection regime and specifies content and procedural expectations for judicial use.

A mandated evaluation procedure for processing operations assessed as high-risk under the Draft Act, requiring custodians/controllers to identify, assess and document privacy risks and mitigation measures, to be archived and submitted to the Board where required.

A systematic, documented assessment required for AI processing of personal or sensitive data (particularly for high-risk systems) that identifies privacy risks, evaluates their severity and likelihood, and specifies mitigation measures; the Bill requires DPIAs be conducted and submitted to the SPDP when mandated.

A documented prior evaluation required for high-risk processing operations (e.g., profiling, large-scale processing, use of new technologies) that identifies risks to data subjects and sets out measures to mitigate those risks; DPIAs must be retained as evidence of compliance.

An evaluation process to identify and mitigate privacy risks arising from personal data processing in an AI system, covering data minimization, pseudonymization/anonymization, access controls and other measures aligned with Qatar’s Personal Data Privacy Protection Law as recommended by the Guidance.

A systematic assessment of the processing operations' necessity and proportionality, and of the risks to the personality and fundamental rights of data subjects, required where processing presents a high risk; the DPIA must document mitigations and, in certain cases, be submitted to or consulted with the EDÖB.

A process designed to help identify and minimize the data protection risks of a project or system, mandatory under GDPR for high-risk processing.

A systematic survey and documentation of the risks that arise from a business's data management practices for any online service, product, or feature likely to be accessed by children. It must assess whether the design could cause material detriment to children's physical health, mental health, or well-being, and include a timed plan to mitigate or eliminate these risks.

A Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA) is a systematic process for identifying and assessing the potential impact on data protection rights and freedoms of individuals arising from a new project, system, or process that involves the processing of personal data. It helps organizations mitigate risks before they materialize.
