It is broken down into three parts:
A detailed description of the processing implemented, including both technical and operational aspects;
The assessment, of a more legal nature, of the necessity and proportionality concerning the fundamental principles and rights (purpose, data and retention periods, information and rights of individuals, etc.) which are non-negotiable, which are set out by law and must be respected, whatever the risks;
The study, of a more technical nature, of the risks to data security (confidentiality, integrity and availability) as well as their potential impacts on privacy, which makes it possible to determine the technical and organizational measures necessary to protect the data.
Carrying out a PIA / AIPD is an exercise that requires rigor, method, coordination:
Carrying out a PIA/AIPD requires operation in project mode and skills/know-how in planning, communication, etc.
To guarantee reliable and compliant AIPD, My Data Solution is based on a proven methodology, in line with the precepts of the CNIL andANSSI. We systematically integrate the latest standards and recommendations, while adjusting our level of requirements according to the sector and the specificities of each project. Our CISO teams are trained to support you every step of the way.
We start with a prior risk analysis, which allows us to determine the appropriate AIPD package (simple or complex) based on the specificities of your project.
We raise your teams' awareness of the issues of personal data protection and the implementation of the PIA (Privacy Impact Assessment) through tailor-made training.
We carry out a complete collection of security measures, and define the roles within your project to ensure optimal management of responsibilities.
We provide a clear analysis of the risks and the corrective measures necessary to mitigate them. We also detail the residual measures to be put in place.
Our MDS consultants can intervene occasionally to provide you with specific support or communicate directly with your CISO in order to guarantee smooth management of the project.
We produce a detailed report for your operational teams and a summary summary intended for the data controller, signatory of the AIPD.
If necessary, we also take care of carrying out and monitoring the authorization request from the CNIL to guarantee the complete compliance of your project.
For teams that frequently perform AIPD, we offer PIA and Privacy by Design training to make them autonomous while respecting good data protection practices.
In addition, our consultants support you in the creation of PIA models that you can reproduce in your specific context, thus saving you time and efficiency for your future projects.
The study, of a more technical nature, of data security risks (confidentiality, integrity and availability) as well as their potential impacts on privacy, which makes it possible to determine the technical and organizational measures necessary to protect the data.
To ensure complete data protection, several levels of security measures are implemented:
Each data processing is analyzed to determine specific measures adapted to the identified risks. This includes the use of advanced encryption and strong authentication protocols.
The overall system is designed to resist attacks and intrusions, with robust firewalls and real-time intrusion detection systems. Regular backups ensure continuous data availability.
Strong governance is in place, with clearly defined roles and responsibilities. Regular training for staff ensures continued awareness of security best practices.
By combining these technical and organizational approaches, a defense-in-depth strategy is established to protect sensitive information at each stage of its life cycle.

A PIA is an assessment that helps determine the risks to individual privacy when an organization processes personal data. It identifies possible privacy breaches and proposes measures to reduce or eliminate them, while ensuring that data processing complies with applicable laws, such as the GDPR.
A PIA is necessary when the processing of personal data is likely to present a high risk to the rights and freedoms of individuals. This includes activities such as surveillance, processing of sensitive or large-scale data, or profiling.
It is the organization that processes the personal data that is responsible for carrying out a PIA. The Data Protection Officer (DPO) can help oversee and guide the process, but final responsibility lies with the organization.
A PIA generally follows these steps:
Failing to perform a PIA when required can result in significant regulatory sanctions, including hefty fines for GDPR non-compliance. Additionally, it exposes the organization to increased data security and reputation risks.
MyDataSolution offers comprehensive support for carrying out PIAs, ensuring that your organization identifies data protection risks and helping you put in place measures to minimize these risks. Our team of certified experts ensures that your PIAs comply with GDPR and CCPA requirements.
The duration of a PIA depends on the complexity of data processing and the size of the organization. A simple treatment may take a few days, while more complex projects may require several weeks.
No, PIA is only mandatory when the processing of personal data poses a high risk to the rights and freedoms of individuals. However, although it is not mandatory, it is often recommended to carry out a PIA to strengthen the security and compliance of your business.
The benefits of a PIA include:
A AIPD (DPIA in English) is broader and refers to the analysis of risks linked to any processing of personal data which presents a high risk to the rights and freedoms of individuals. The PIA is a key component of the AIPD, focused more specifically on the protection of privacy.
Defining the purpose influences how long data is retained and what security measures are implemented. Data is only retained for as long as necessary for its intended purpose, and appropriate safeguards are established to protect it throughout its lifecycle.
Clearly stating the purpose informs individuals why their data is being collected and how it will be used, improving transparency and trust. It also helps individuals understand their rights and the benefits of sharing data.
Understanding the purpose helps assess the necessity and proportionality of data processing, ensuring that only relevant data is collected and used. It also helps identify potential risks and determine appropriate protective measures.
Définir l’objectif est crucial car cela garantit que les activités de traitement des données sont conformes aux normes légales et respectent la vie privée des utilisateurs. Cela guide également la sélection des données appropriées, des méthodes et des mesures de sécurité.
Le traitement des données a pour but d’atteindre un objectif clair, tel que l’amélioration de la prestation de services, l’amélioration de l’expérience client ou le respect des exigences légales. Identifier cet objectif aide à définir comment les données seront utilisées et les avantages qu’elles visent à apporter.
