PROCESS
Project Initiation
Step 1 Project Initiation Define scope of PIA process Designate team resources Adapt PIA tools to reflect scope

This is the first step in conducting a PIA and it involves asking and answering the following question: "Is personal information being collected, used or disclosed in this initiative?" Remember: institutions must conduct PIAs for proposals for all new programs and services that raise privacy issues. If the answer is 'yes', then the departmental official should review the checklist for when a PIA is required. If the answer is 'maybe', the same checklist should be consulted and perhaps a PPIA would be the next step in the process. If the answer is 'no', then a PIA is not likely required. If a PIA is not required, it's always a good idea to get 'sign-off' on that decision. Doing so illustrates 'due diligence' and demonstrates that consideration was given to the idea.

Start a PIA in the early stages of the design or redesign of a program or service. This can potentially save time and money and have a greater influence on the development process of the program or service.

Always keep a risk management approach in mind when you conduct a PIA. It will help you manage the process.

Define the scope of the PIA process

You may find that you don't have enough information to complete a full PIA and therefore, may only require a Preliminary PIA (PPIA). You may find in determining your scope or in the process of completing a Preliminary PIA that you will not need to conduct a full PIA. Defining your scope will also help you determine what team resources you'll require.

Designate team resources

Remember: PIAs involve more than just one person. To complete a PIA you will likely be involving legal and privacy experts, ATIP personnel, and systems and IT personnel. Many of these resources will only be involved at certain stages of the PIA process, but they are all integral to the completion of a PIA. You'll learn more about the PIA Team in the next Module.

Adapt PIA tools to reflect scope

PIAs are not rigid, inflexible tools and no two PIAs will be exactly the same. The Treasury Board published their Guidelines document as a model that can be changed to reflect your particular situation.

Data Analysis
Step 2 Data Analysis Describe proposed business process diagrams Identify clusters of personal information in business processes Developed detailed data flow charts

This is the second step and is directly linked to the requirement that institutions must identify all personal information associated with the business processes. An analysis is accomplished by developing detailed descriptions and analysis of the data flows. Key information includes business process diagrams, data flow tablesand system and infrastructure architectures. o Business Process Diagrams A business process diagram is a high level description of the information flows associated with a given activity. o Data Flow Tables Data flow tables illustrate how and by whom personal information will be collected, used, disclosed and retained. o System and Infrastructure Architectures 3. System and infrastructure architectures typically document any physical or logical separation of personal information or security mechanisms that prevent improper access to personal information or maintain any required separation.

Describe proposed business processes with diagrams

This is a graphical description and analysis of the business context and it identifies how information flows through the organization. It may also include system and infrastructure diagrams.

Identify clusters of personal information involved in business processes

A description of all personal data elements associated with the proposed business process. As an example, a data cluster could be client identification for authentication (name, date of birth, country of birth, and case number).

Develop detailed data flowcharts of personal information

Provides a detailed description of the collection, use and disclosure of personal information in the proposed business process.

Privacy Analysis

Step 3 Privacy Analysis Complete privacy analysis questionnaires Discuss answers to questionnaires that necessitate further details Decribe privacy issues and implications

This is the third step in the PIA process and it examines the data flows in the context of privacy policies and legislation. The Privacy Impact Assessment Guidelines document includes questionnaires that cover the universal privacy principles, the requirements of the Privacy Act and PIPEDA. The questionnaires form the basis of the PIA Report.

Complete privacy analysis questionnaires

The questionnaires help institutions conduct assessments. There are two questionnairesQuestionnaire A is for federal programs and Questionnaire B is for cross-jurisdictional initiatives.

Discuss answers to questionnaires that necessitate further details.

In completing either questionnaire, you may find that more information is required before the PIA can be completed.

Describe privacy issues and implications

Completing the questionnaire will provide a 'map' which will help you describe the privacy issues and their possible implications.

Step 4 Privacy Impact Assessment Report Summarize privacy risks and evaluate degree of risk involved Identify, discuss actions or options to mitigate risks End with other considerations (if any) and path forward

Privacy Impact Assessment Report

This is the final and most critical step in the PIA process, but remember, PIAs do not necessarily end herePIAs need to be maintained and updated over time. The Report is necessary because institutions must document their evaluations of privacy risks, the implications of those risks and their discussions of possible remedies, options and recommendations. At a minimum the Report must include: o o o o o An outline of the proposal (collection, use or disclosure of personal information; legal authority; and, justification). A list of stakeholders, roles and responsibilities. A list of relevant legislation and policies. A description of specific identified privacy risks. An analysis of options.

o o

A list of residual risks that cannot be resolved by means of the proposed options and an analysis of possible implications of these risks. A communications strategy.

Summarize privacy risks and evaluate degree of risks involved.

The summary is based on completing the questionnaire. A summary table can be used to display the risk(s) and their associated degree of risk (low, moderate or high).

Identify and discuss actions or options to eliminate or mitigate risks

This should include a statement of the implications associated with those mechanisms suggested to eliminate, mitigate or avoid risk. It should also include a description of any residual or outstanding risks.

A risk management approach is very important during this phase of the PIA. Always focus on identifying risks and strategies to mitigate those risks. You're not likely to ever eliminate risk, but you must manage risks.

Conclude with other considerations (if any) and path forward.

This is the action plan for moving forward. It should include a communications strategy.

Process summary
The results of a PIA must either provide assurance that there are no outstanding privacy implications associated with program and service delivery activities or serve as an early warning sign that there are significant privacy risks that require resolution.
