Privacy Assessment
PrivaTech defines a privacy assessment as "An evaluation of business processes to determine the level of compliance with 'best practice benchmarks, which includes conducting a data flow analysis, gap analysis, privacy risk assessment and developing privacy risk management plans."
PrivaTech's experienced privacy consultants and lawyers conduct in-depth assessments of organizations' existing on-line and off-line initiatives in order to document and analyze data flows.
The assessment is used to understand:
- How and why personal information is collected and used;
- Whether consents have been obtained and the form of consent;
- Who manages the information and how it is safeguarded;
- How long it is retained and what disposal methods are used; and
- Whether the information is released to third parties and for what reasons.
Once the business processes are well understood and practices have been compared to the privacy legal requirements to assess the gaps, it is possible for PrivaTech to highlight and help your prioritize privacy risks. The severity of the risk, ease of implementing a recommended solution, and the cost associated with such implementation are factored into the development of risk management plans.
PrivaTech's privacy assessment report will give you detailed recommendations on changes to practices that you should implement internally to better meet your privacy responsibilities.Newsletter
