When is a Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA) under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) mandatory?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

Whenever a new technology is applied, a DPIA must be performed. In addition, a DPIA must be performed before starting the processing of personal data. This is important to check for risks to data subjects since data collection.

In its Article 35 the GDPR legislates on the Impact assessment on data protection.

1. Where a type of processing in particular using new technologies, and taking into account the nature, scope, context and purposes of the processing, is likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of natural persons, the controller shall, prior to the processing, carry out an assessment of the impact of the envisaged processing operations on the protection of personal data. A single assessment may address a set of similar processing operations that present similar high risks.

A seems like the correct answer. DPIA is required when new technologies pose high risks to individuals' rights and freedoms.
