Privacy impact assessments
RSS feedA privacy impact assessment (PIA) is a systematic assessment of a project that identifies potential privacy impacts and recommendations to manage, minimise or eliminate them.
To be effective, a PIA should be an integral part of the project planning process: it can help facilitate a privacy-by-design approach, identify better practice and help ensure compliance with the Privacy Act. Australian Government agencies are also required to undertake a PIA for all high privacy risk projects.
