Data Protection Review

The purpose of a data protection review is to identify potential risks before the collection and processing of personal data and to minimize them where possible.
In university life, data protection reviews particularly come into play before research projects and before the introduction of new digital services for teaching, research, or administration.
The primary goal of the review is to determine whether the nature of the data or the processing of the data entails a high risk to the rights and freedoms of the data subject.
If the risk remains high despite the implementation of protection measures, or the data is being processed using new technologies or a very large number of people are affected (> 10,000), the project must be submitted to the canton's data protection officer for a prior consultation.
The Data Protection Officer's team is available to answer questions and assist you with implementation.
