Request Audit Guidance
What is ISO 27701 Compliance Audit?
ISO/IEC 27701 is the international privacy extension to ISO/IEC 27001 (Information Security Management) and ISO/IEC 27002 (Security Controls). It defines requirements and guidelines for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continually improving a Privacy Information Management System (PIMS).
Our ISO 27701 audit services help organizations systematically govern Personally Identifiable Information (PII) across its entire lifecycle—from collection and processing to storage and destruction. Whether operating as a PII Data Controller or a PII Data Processor, our audits ensure complete operational compliance with global privacy regulations including GDPR, India's DPDP Act, CCPA, and HIPAA.
Lumiverse Solutions provides end-to-end privacy auditing, Privacy Impact Assessments (PIA/DPIA), gap remediation, and certification audit support to ensure your organization builds sustainable privacy trust with stakeholders and clients.

Frequently Asked Questions
Key insights into ISO 27701 audit and Privacy Information Management Systems.
Yes. ISO 27701 is designed as a privacy management extension to ISO 27001. An organization must either already hold an ISO 27001 certification or implement both ISO 27001 (ISMS) and ISO 27701 (PIMS) concurrently during a joint audit.
ISO 27701 maps directly to privacy principles under GDPR, DPDP Act, and CCPA. Implementing ISO 27701 controls gives your organization the exact operational frameworks, policies, and audit trails needed to demonstrate accountability under data protection laws.
Depending on your current ISO 27001 maturity and operational complexity, a full PIMS gap assessment, control implementation, and certification audit prep typically take between 4 to 8 weeks.
PII Controllers determine the purpose and legal basis for collecting personal data (Annex A), whereas PII Processors process data on behalf of controllers (Annex B). ISO 27701 establishes specific guidance for both operational roles.
