DPIA spells collaboration

In this episode, they dive into the topic of Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs) and the importance of collaboration in ensuring privacy-friendly practices.

In this podcast you will learn about:

• The consequences of being in a siloed compliance function
• Why you as a privacy professional should ensure company wide collaboration
• How you go from working in a silo to company wide collaboration
• You will learn about how to use frameworks and stakeholder management as tools to collaborate in a better way.

Jakob tells the story of Jennifer, who finds herself in a challenging situation involving a project and the need for a DPIA. The host, Benjamin, and Privacy evangelist, Jacob, discuss the misconceptions surrounding DPIAs and the typical scenarios that lead to their implementation.

The podcast delves into the consequences of asking compliance professionals to justify decisions that have already been made, rather than focusing on privacy-friendly practices from the start. They explore the concept of siloed compliance functions and how it affects organizations' overall data protection efforts.

To address these issues, Benjamin and Jakob propose a shift towards company-wide collaboration, emphasizing the importance of involving privacy professionals early in the project lifecycle. They discuss the ideal meeting scenarios and ways privacy professionals can contribute to the process.
