Privacy Gap Assessments

Think you have exposure or know you’re in-scope for one or more global privacy regulations?

Confused by acronyms like GDPR, CCPA, CPRA, VCDPA, PIPEDA, FERPA, and COPPA? Baffled by operational challenges such as Data Subject Rights, Transparency, Consent, and Data Localization?

DPSA CAN HELP you make sense of it all. We will help you determine what you need today—and down the road.

Maximize information collection while minimizing disruption to your business teams.

DPSA’S PURPOSE-BUILT PRIVACY GAP ASSESSMENTS CAN BE CUSTOMIZED TO COMBINE MULTIPLE REGULATIONS INTO A SINGLE ASSESSMENT TEMPLATE. OPTIONS INCLUDE:

• CCPA/CPRA + COPPA
• GDPR + CCPA/CPRA + VCDPA
• COPPA + FERPA
• PIPEDA + GDPR

We take a two-pronged approach: DPSA will evaluate the “macro” view of your company’s privacy posture against core regulatory requirements and provide your organization with a detailed understanding of strengthens and weaknesses—plus a roadmap for achieving your desired level of compliance and program maturity.

Then, we provide a “micro” view of the risk and compliance posture for each individual business unit. This  granular perspective is critical for prioritizing remediation efforts to account for differing levels of risk across different teams.

The DPSA’s Privacy Gap Assessment deliverables include:

  • Conformity Matrix of all assessment responses, with details on your company’s current requirements and compliance levels, estimated risk, and operational effort to close the gap.
  • Findings Report which dives deeper into the gaps and regulatory obligations and provides a prioritized, step-by-step remediation and implementation plan for achieving and sustaining ongoing compliance.

The DPSA team’s expertise is augmented by industry-leading technology, ensuring privacy gap assessments will scale with your company and keep pace with the changing regulatory landscape.
