35 artikla Tietosuojaa koskeva vaikutustenarviointi

-

1. Yleiskatsaus

,
35 artikla 1.
Jos tietyntyyppinen käsittely etenkin uutta teknologiaa käytettäessä todennäköisesti aiheuttaa – käsittelyn luonne, laajuus, asiayhteys ja tarkoitukset huomioon ottaen – luonnollisen henkilön oikeuksien ja vapauksien kannalta korkean riskin, rekisterinpitäjän on ennen käsittelyä toteutettava arviointi suunniteltujen käsittelytoimien vaikutuksista henkilötietojen suojalle. Yhtä arviota voidaan käyttää samankaltaisiin vastaavia korkeita riskejä aiheuttaviin käsittelytoimiin.
35 artikla 2.
Tietosuojaa koskevaa vaikutustenarviointia tehdessään rekisterinpitäjän on pyydettävä neuvoja tietosuojavastaavalta, jos sellainen on nimitetty.
35 artikla 3.

Edellä 1 kohdassa tarkoitettu tietosuojaa koskeva vaikutustenarviointi vaaditaan erityisesti tapauksissa joissa:

▼C2

a) 

luonnollisten henkilöiden henkilökohtaisten ominaisuuksia arvioidaan järjestelmällisesti ja kattavasti perustuen automaattiseen käsittelyyn, kuten profilointiin, mikä johtaa päätöksiin, joilla on luonnollista henkilöä koskevia oikeusvaikutuksia tai jotka vaikuttavat luonnolliseen henkilöön vastaavalla tavalla merkittävästi;

b) 

laajamittainen käsittely kohdistuu 9 artiklan 1 kohdassa tarkoitettuihin erityisiin henkilötietoryhmiin tai 10 artiklassa tarkoitettuihin rikostuomioita tai rikoksia koskeviin tietoihin; tai

c) 

on kyse yleisölle avoimen alueen järjestelmällisestä ja laajamittaisesta valvonnasta.

▼B

35 artikla 4.
Valvontaviranomaisen on laadittava ja julkaistava luettelo käsittelytoimien tyypeistä, joiden yhteydessä vaaditaan 1 kohdan nojalla tietosuojaa koskeva vaikutustenarviointi. Valvontaviranomaisen on toimitettava tällaiset luettelot 68 artiklassa tarkoitetulle neuvostolle.
35 artikla 5.
Valvontaviranomainen voi myös laatia ja julkaista luettelon käsittelytoimien tyypeistä, joiden osalta ei vaadita tietosuojaa koskevaa vaikutustenarviointia. Valvontaviranomaisen on toimitettava tällaiset luettelot tietosuojaneuvostolle.
35 artikla 6.
Jos 4 ja 5 kohdassa tarkoitettu luettelo sisältää käsittelytoimia, jotka liittyvät tavaroiden tai palvelujen tarjoamiseen rekisteröidyille tai näiden käyttäytymisen seurantaan useissa jäsenvaltioissa tai jos toimet voivat merkittävästi vaikuttaa henkilötietojen vapaaseen liikkuvuuteen unionissa, toimivaltaisen valvontaviranomaisen on sovellettava 63 artiklassa tarkoitettua yhdenmukaisuusmekanismia ennen kuin se vahvistaa kyseisen luettelon.
35 artikla 7.

Arvioinnin on sisällettävä vähintään:

a) 

järjestelmällinen kuvaus suunnitelluista käsittelytoimista, ja käsittelyn tarkoituksista, mukaan lukien tarvittaessa rekisterinpitäjän oikeutetut edut;

b) 

arvio käsittelytoimien tarpeellisuudesta ja oikeasuhteisuudesta tarkoituksiin nähden;

c) 

arvio 1 kohdassa tarkoitetuista rekisteröityjen oikeuksia ja vapauksia koskevista riskeistä; ja

d) 

suunnitellut toimenpiteet riskeihin puuttumiseksi, mukaan lukien suoja- ja turvallisuustoimet ja mekanismit, joilla varmistetaan henkilötietojen suoja ja osoitetaan, että tätä asetusta on noudatettu ottaen huomioon rekisteröityjen ja muiden asianomaisten oikeudet ja oikeutetut edut.
35 artikla 8.
Se, että asianomaiset rekisterinpitäjät tai henkilötietojen käsittelijät noudattavat 40 artiklassa tarkoitettuja hyväksyttyjä käytännesääntöjä, otetaan asianmukaisesti huomioon arvioitaessa kyseisten rekisterinpitäjien ja henkilötietojen käsittelijöiden suorittamien käsittelytoimien vaikutusta erityisesti tietosuojaa koskevassa vaikutustenarvioinnissa.
35 artikla 9.
Rekisterinpitäjän on tapauksen mukaan pyydettävä rekisteröityjen tai näiden edustajien näkemyksiä suunnitelluista käsittelytoimista, ilman että tämä saa vaikuttaa kaupallisten tai yleisten etujen suojeluun tai käsittelytoimien turvallisuuteen.
35 artikla 10.
Jos 6 artiklan 1 kohdan c tai e alakohdan mukaisen käsittelyn oikeusperusteena on rekisterinpitäjään sovellettava unionin oikeus tai jäsenvaltion lainsäädäntö, joka säätelee siihen liittyvää käsittelytointa tai käsittelytoimia, ja tietosuojaa koskeva vaikutustenarviointi on jo tehty yleisen vaikutustenarvioinnin osana kyseisen käsittelyn oikeusperusteen hyväksymisen yhteydessä, 1–7 kohtaa ei sovelleta, paitsi jos jäsenvaltiot katsovat tarpeelliseksi toteuttaa tällaisen arvioinnin ennen käsittelytoimien aloittamista.
35 artikla 11.
Rekisterinpitäjän on tehtävä tarvittaessa uudelleentarkastelu arvioidakseen, tapahtuuko käsittely tietosuojaa koskevan vaikutustenarvioinnin mukaisesti, ainakin jos käsittelytoimien sisältämä riski muuttuu.

SCR-CMM

Level 0 Not Performed

Practices are non-existent, based on the inability to demonstrate an implemented and operational capability. A reasonable person would conclude the control is not being performed.

Level 1 Performed Informally

Risk Management (RSK) domain capabilities are ad hoc and inconsistent. Capability criteria associated with this control may include:
▪ Policies, standards & procedures associated with RSK domain capabilities provide limited coverage due to the depth and breadth of the existing documentation.
▪ Risk management-related activities are decentralized (e.g., a localized/regionalized function) and uses non-standardized methods to implement secure, resilient and compliant practices.
▪ IT and/or cybersecurity personnel use an informal process to identify, assess, remediate and report on risk.
▪ Risk management processes (e.g., risk assessments) focus on protecting High Value Assets (HVAs), including environments where sensitive/regulated data is stored, transmitted and processed.
▪ Data/process owners are expected to self-manage risks associated with their Technology Assets, Applications, Services and/or Data (TAASD), based on the organization's published policies and standards, including the identification, remediation and reporting of risks.

Level 2 Planned Tracked

Risk Management (RSK) capabilities are requirements-driven, but are not standardized across the entity (e.g., local/regional level consistency). Capability criteria associated with this control reasonably expect the following criteria to exist:
▪ Policies and standards associated with RSK domain capabilities are formally documented and centrally-managed by the entity.
▪ Standardized Operating Procedures (SOP) associated with RSK domain capabilities are documented and maintained by process owners.
▪ IT and/or cybersecurity personnel work with business stakeholders and process owners to appropriately scope and reasonably implement cybersecurity and data protection controls associated with RSK domain capabilities to address applicable statutory, regulatory and/or contractual requirements for Technology Assets, Applications, Services and/or Data (TAASD).
▪ Risk management-related controls are primarily administrative and preventative in nature (e.g., policies, standards and procedures & guidelines).
▪ Risk management may be a defined function (e.g., team or department) or assigned as an additional duty to existing IT and/or cybersecurity personnel.
▪ Risk management processes (e.g., risk assessments) and technologies focus on protecting High Value Assets (HVAs), including environments where sensitive/regulated data is stored, transmitted and processed.
▪ IT and/or cybersecurity personnel implement and maintain a form of Risk Management Program (RMP) that provides operational guidance on how risk is identified, assessed, remediated and reported.
▪ Data/process owners are expected to self-manage risks associated with their systems, applications, services and data, based on the organization's published policies and standards, including the identification, remediation and reporting of risks.

Level 3 Well Defined

Risk Management (RSK) capabilities are standardized across the entity for applicability to People, Processes, Technologies, Data and/or Facilities (PPTDF) to ensure consistency for Technology Assets, Applications, Services and/or Data (TAASD). Capability criteria associated with this control reasonably expect the following criteria to exist:
▪ Policies and standards associated with RSK domain capabilities are formally documented and centrally-managed by the entity's Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) team, or similar function.
▪ Standardized Operating Procedures (SOP) associated with RSK domain capabilities are well-documented and kept current by process owners.
▪ A risk management team, or similar function, is appropriately staffed and supported to implement and maintain RSK domain capabilities.
▪ Technology is leveraged to enhance the efficiency and accuracy of risk management operations (e.g., risk management solution, GRC platform and TPRM tool).
▪ The entity's Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) team, or similar function, works with business stakeholders and process owners to appropriately scope and reasonably implement cybersecurity and data protection controls associated with RSK domain capabilities to address Minimum Compliance Requirements (MCR) (e.g., applicable statutory, regulatory and/or contractual requirements) and Discretionary Security Requirements (DSR) (e.g., entity-required controls).
▪ An implemented and operational capability exists to develop and keep current a catalog of applicable risks associated with the organization's business operations and technologies in use.

Level 4 Quantitatively Controlled

Utilize SCR-CMM Level 3 criteria definitions:
▪ There are no defined Level 4 criteria, since it is reasonable to assume a quantitatively-controlled process is not necessary to operationalize this control.
▪ While it may be possible to develop “metrics-driven” capabilities for this control, the criteria would be organization-specific to define.

Level 5 Continuously Improving

Utilize SCR-CMM Level 3 or Level 4 (if available) criteria definitions:
▪ There are no defined Level 5 criteria, since it is reasonable to assume a continuously-improving process is not necessary to operationalize this control.
▪ Level 5 capabilities should be considered “world-class” where the control builds on Level 4 capabilities, but are continuously improving through Artificial Intelligence (AI) and/or Machine Learning (ML) technologies.
▪ While it may be possible to develop responsive capabilities for this control through the use of AI and/or ML technologies, the criteria would be organization-specific to define.

▪ A Data Protection Officer (DPO) is appointed:
(1) Based on professional qualifications; and
(2) To be involved in all issues related to how Personal Data (PD) is collected, received, processed, stored, transmitted, shared, updated and/or disposed.

Level 4 Quantitatively Controlled

Privacy (PRI) capabilities, in addition to being standardized across the entity and centrally managed to ensure consistency across Technology Assets, Applications, Services and/or Data (TAASD), efforts are metrics driven to provide sufficient insight for decision makers to predict optimal performance, ensure continued operations and/or identify areas for improvement. Capability criteria associated with this control reasonably expect the following criteria to exist:
▪ Applicable SCR-CMM Level 3 (Well Defined) capabilities are implemented and operational.
▪ Metrics reporting includes quantitative analysis of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs).
▪ Metrics reporting includes quantitative analysis of Key Risk Indicators (KRIs).
▪ Scope of metrics, KPIs and KRIs covers organization-wide cybersecurity and data protection controls, including functions performed by third-parties.
▪ Organizational leadership maintains a formal process to objectively review and respond to metrics, KPIs and KRIs (e.g., monthly or quarterly review).
▪ Based on metrics analysis, process improvement recommendations are submitted for review and are handled in accordance with change control processes.
▪ Business and technical stakeholders are involved in reviewing and approving proposed changes to evolve capabilities.

Level 5 Continuously Improving

Utilize SCR-CMM Level 3 or Level 4 (if available) criteria definitions:

▪ Risk management may be a defined function (e.g., team or department) or assigned as an additional duty to existing IT and/or cybersecurity personnel.
▪ Risk management processes (e.g., risk assessments) and technologies focus on protecting High Value Assets (HVAs), including environments where sensitive/regulated data is stored, transmitted and processed.
▪ IT and/or cybersecurity personnel implement and maintain a form of Risk Management Program (RMP) that provides operational guidance on how risk is identified, assessed, remediated and reported.
▪ Data/process owners are expected to self-manage risks associated with their systems, applications, services and data, based on the organization's published policies and standards, including the identification, remediation and reporting of risks.
▪ Business process owners (BPOs) are made aware of cybersecurity and data protection risk(s).

Level 3 Well Defined

Risk Management (RSK) capabilities are standardized across the entity for applicability to People, Processes, Technologies, Data and/or Facilities (PPTDF) to ensure consistency for Technology Assets, Applications, Services and/or Data (TAASD). Capability criteria associated with this control reasonably expect the following criteria to exist:
▪ Policies and standards associated with RSK domain capabilities are formally documented and centrally-managed by the entity's Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) team, or similar function.
▪ Standardized Operating Procedures (SOP) associated with RSK domain capabilities are well-documented and kept current by process owners.
▪ A risk management team, or similar function, is appropriately staffed and supported to implement and maintain RSK domain capabilities.
▪ Technology is leveraged to enhance the efficiency and accuracy of risk management operations (e.g., risk management solution, GRC platform and TPRM tool).
▪ The entity's Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) team, or similar function, works with business stakeholders and process owners to appropriately scope and reasonably implement cybersecurity and data protection controls associated with RSK domain capabilities to address Minimum Compliance Requirements (MCR) (e.g., applicable statutory, regulatory and/or contractual requirements) and Discretionary Security Requirements (DSR) (e.g., entity-required controls).
▪ An implemented and operational capability exists to conduct a Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA) on Technology Assets, Applications and/or Services (TAAS) that store, process and/or transmit Personal Data (PD) to identify and remediate reasonably-expected risks.

Level 4 Quantitatively Controlled

Risk Management (RSK) capabilities, in addition to being standardized across the entity and centrally managed to ensure consistency across Technology Assets, Applications, Services and/or Data (TAASD), efforts are metrics driven to provide sufficient insight for decision makers to predict optimal performance, ensure continued operations and/or identify areas for improvement. Capability criteria associated with this control reasonably expect the following criteria to exist:
▪ Applicable SCR-CMM Level 3 (Well Defined) capabilities are implemented and operational.
▪ Metrics reporting includes quantitative analysis of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs).
▪ Metrics reporting includes quantitative analysis of Key Risk Indicators (KRIs).
▪ Scope of metrics, KPIs and KRIs covers organization-wide cybersecurity and data protection controls, including functions performed by third-parties.
▪ Organizational leadership maintains a formal process to objectively review and respond to metrics, KPIs and KRIs (e.g., monthly or quarterly review).
▪ Based on metrics analysis, process improvement recommendations are submitted for review and are handled in accordance with change control processes.
▪ Business and technical stakeholders are involved in reviewing and approving proposed changes to evolve capabilities.

Level 5 Continuously Improving

Utilize SCR-CMM Level 3 or Level 4 (if available) criteria definitions:
▪ There are no defined Level 5 criteria, since it is reasonable to assume a continuously-improving process is not necessary to operationalize this control.
▪ Level 5 capabilities should be considered “world-class” where the control builds on Level 4 capabilities, but are continuously improving through Artificial Intelligence (AI) and/or Machine Learning (ML) technologies.
▪ While it may be possible to develop responsive capabilities for this control through the use of AI and/or ML technologies, the criteria would be organization-specific to define.
