HIGH-RISK PROCESSING AND DATA IMPACT ASSESSMENT (DPIA) |
Given the nature of the services offered—brokerage and custody of physical gold, management of savings plans, and AML compliance—some of the processing performed by MyGold presents characteristics that qualify them as high risk for the rights and freedoms of data subjects, requiring a DPIA pursuant to Article 35 of the GDPR.
|
DPIAs are drafted and updated periodically with the involvement of the Compliance Officer. If a DPIA identifies a high residual risk despite the measures adopted, MyGold will consult with the Italian Data Protection Authority (Garante per la Protezione dei Dati Personali) pursuant to Article 36 of the GDPR before initiating or continuing processing |

PRIVACY BY DESIGN AND PRIVACY BY DEFAULT |
MyGold integrates personal data protection into the design of every new service or significant change to existing processing (Privacy by Design), pursuant to Art. 25 GDPR. By default, we process only the personal data strictly necessary for each specific purpose, limiting data collection, access, retention, and dissemination to the bare minimum.
Before launching new processing operations that are likely to pose a high risk to the rights and freedoms of data subjects, MyGold conducts a Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA) with the involvement of the Data Protection Officer.
