# Privacy Risk Assessment & Mitigation

## Know the risk before you take it.

Every new system changes how personal data moves. We assess the privacy risk of your projects and give you practical ways to lower it.

We run privacy risk assessments on new projects: cloud migrations, AI and analytics tools, new HR or CRM systems, digital transformation programmes. We look at what data is used, who can see it, where it goes and what could go wrong. Then we agree fixes with your team. For Significant Data Fiduciaries we run the Data Protection Impact Assessment the Rules require.

## What you get

- A privacy risk assessment for each project
- A risk register with likelihood, impact and owners
- Practical mitigation steps your teams can actually do
- Data Protection Impact Assessments for Significant Data Fiduciaries
- Sign-off support for your steering committee

## Good fit if

- You are moving to the cloud or changing core systems
- You are adopting AI or analytics on customer or employee data
- You are, or may become, a Significant Data Fiduciary

## Questions

**What is a Data Protection Impact Assessment?** A structured study of how a project affects people's data and what could go wrong. Section 10 requires it for Significant Data Fiduciaries. It is good practice for everyone.

**Does this slow our project down?** A typical assessment runs alongside your project in two to three weeks. It usually saves time later.
