DPIA Review
Clinic

Expert review of an existing or planned Data Protection Impact Assessment, with practical guidance on gaps and improvements.

DPIA Review Clinic

Overview

Data Protection Impact Assessments help organisations identify and manage privacy risks before introducing processing that may create a high risk to individuals. Completing a DPIA internally can, however, leave teams unsure whether they have considered the right questions or adequately addressed the risks identified.

The DPIA Review Clinic gives organisations access to an experienced independent reviewer without turning the exercise into a large consultancy project. OSP reviews the organisation’s existing or draft DPIA, challenges assumptions and provides practical recommendations for strengthening it.
