A privacy-by-design review identifies privacy risks by conducting a DPIA for projects handling personal data. It screens new data-processing initiatives, classifies data against GDPR, CCPA, and DPDP categories, and generates a data-flow diagram, retention policy, and privacy appendix for ADR integration.

You need a data-flow diagram and retention policy for GDPR compliance when initiating new data-processing initiatives. Generating these documents at project start records the personal data lifecycle and ensures privacy-by-design safeguards across data storage and cross-border sharing.

Data classification maps personal data types to regulatory requirements by evaluating data against GDPR, CCPA, and DPDP categories. This determines necessary safeguards, enabling privacy-by-design reviews to identify risks and produce compliant retention policies for architecture decision records.

The best way to integrate privacy appendices into ADRs is to generate them during a privacy-by-design review at project start. This preserves decision logs and documents the specific controls, data-flow diagrams, and retention policies applied to personal data processing initiatives.

A privacy-by-design review works for cross-border data sharing by ensuring GDPR, CCPA, and DPDP compliance during DPIA risk assessments. It generates data-flow diagrams that document the lifecycle of personal data across international boundaries and produces retention policies.

Your project needs a DPIA screening when personal data is detected to identify privacy risks early. Triggered automatically by project-start checks, this screening classifies data against GDPR, CCPA, and DPDP categories to ensure privacy-by-design compliance before data processing begins.
