With the forthcoming EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) a little over a year away, far too many organisations have yet to start thinking about or preparing for this more demanding data protection framework which replaces the UK Data Protection Act. At the heart of GDPR is Article 35, which requires "Privacy by Design" for data processing activities. The most widely accepted method of demonstrating compliance is to conduct a "Privacy Impact Assessment" (also known as a Data Protection Impact Assessment within GDPR) - and that’s where UtopiaR can make a real difference.

Customers are taken on a progressive assessment of each data processing activity, helping them to evaluate the protection provided to valuable citizen personal data, and providing a clear and structured report that is suitable for sharing with data subjects and stakeholders. UtopiaR goes further: it undertakes a detailed analysis of the responses to highlight other potential areas of weakness in their GDPR preparations, allowing them to quickly and efficiently target their remedial work.

Available to customers in a variety of subscription offers via the UtopiaR website, organisations can be up and running with their own UtopiaR privacy impact assessment library in a matter of minutes. The cloud-based software, which can be accessed from any internet-connected device, is easy to use, and supported by a clear and concise user manual.

UtopiaR also provides a GDPR documentation pack, containing a wide selection of quality policies, procedures, templates and information which further assists with meeting GDPR requirements.
