According to the GDPR, when is a data protection impact assessment (DPIA) obligatory?

AWhen a project includes technologies or processes that use personal data

BWhen processing is likely to result in a high risk to the rights of data subjects

CWhen similar processing operations with comparable risks are repeated

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

When a project includes technologies or processes that use personal data. Incorrect. Only for technologies and processes that are likely to result in a high risk to the rights of data subjects is the DPIA mandatory.

When processing is likely to result in a high risk to the rights of data subjects. Correct. For processing operations which are likely to result in a high risk, a DPIA is obligatory to assess those risks and to design mitigation measures. (Literature: A, Chapter 6; GDPR Article 35)

When similar processing operations with comparable risks are repeated. Incorrect. This is a case in which a DPIA does not need to be repeated.

C is also a factor, but B is the main trigger for a DPIA.

I think option C might be relevant too, but it seems more about repeated operations rather than the initial requirement for a DPIA.

I feel like I read something about DPIAs being necessary when using new technologies, but I can't recall if that's the main reason.

I remember practicing a question about DPIAs, and it mentioned that they are required for high-risk processing activities. So, I think option B is correct.
