Description
The PETs Adoption Guide below is a question-based flowchart to aid decision-makers in thinking through which Privacy Enhancing Technologies (PETs) may be useful in their projects.
The guide aims not to be overly prescriptive and does not claim to cover all use cases of PETs. Rather, it seeks to support decision-making around the use of PETs by helping the user explore which technologies could be beneficial to their use case. Whether a particular PET provides a suitable solution will depend on the specific context, and results from the Guide should be read as suggestions to explore rather than definitive solutions.
It is also important to understand that using an individual PET does not in itself guarantee an improvement in privacy unless accompanied by a good overall privacy design, and appropriate governance arrangements.
