ISO/IEC 27701:2019 – Privacy Information Management System (PIMS)

Extending Your Information Security to Privacy Protection

ISO/IEC 27701:2019 is an internationally recognized standard developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). It provides a framework for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continuously improving a Privacy Information Management System (PIMS)—as an extension to ISO/IEC 27001 and ISO/IEC 27002—to manage personally identifiable information (PII) and enhance privacy controls within an organization's existing Information Security Management System (ISMS).

This standard outlines specific requirements and practical guidance for organizations that are PII Controllers and/or PII Processors, enabling them to manage data privacy in alignment with global data protection laws such as GDPR, CCPA, and other regional privacy regulations.

Who Should Use ISO/IEC 27701?

ISO/IEC 27701 is applicable to all types and sizes of organizations, including:

  • Public and private companies

  • Government agencies

  • Non-profit organizations
    …that process or manage personally identifiable information (PII), either as controllers or processors.
