Data-Privacy Governance for Qlik & Power BI

Prove “who saw what, when.” Privacy-gated releases, scoped restore, least-privilege access

Operationalise privacy-by-design. With Ebiexperts, every change is logged and approved, releases are privacy-gated, tenant/app assets (incl. private objects) are backed up continuously, and you can answer regulator questions fast: who changed what, who accessed what, and show me that exact dashboard again.

Why Privacy in BI is Complex

  • End-to-end visibility gaps across teams & environments.
  • Tiny visual/filter changes can widen exposure.
  • SARs/investigations demand precise, fast evidence and restores.
  • Enforcing least-privilege consistently across Qlik & Power BI.

Our Single-Vendor Solution

Version Control + Active Backup + Section Access as a unified control layer across tools and teams.

Control-level features

Reporting Version Control

Privacy impact analysis pre-publish; version comparisons + publication history; privacy release gates; Agile Board + Jira automation.

Backup & Restore

Continuous tenant/service + app backup (incl. private objects); point-in-time restore scoped to user/object for SARs; retention aligned to privacy obligations.

Access Governance

Least-privilege & SoD; exportable access evidence; instant revoke; exceptions view & notifications.

Business benefits

  • Regulator-ready responses in minutes (change + access evidence).
  • Prevent privacy regressions before Production.
  • Shrink investigation scope via object-level restore.
  • Reduce breach risk with rapid de-provisioning & exception control.
  • Build trust with consistent policies across Qlik & Power BI.

Compelling Events & Deadlines (2025–2026)

EU/UK/US/CA/ZA

No brand-new omnibus privacy laws “turning on” in 2026, but enforcement and expectations continue to rise, and ESG/financial disclosures often reference personal data flows. Your 2025–2026 priority is demonstrable access logs, change evidence, privacy-gated releases, and point-in-time restore across BI.

California

Climate laws (if in scope) may cross-reference data used in disclosures; ensure privacy evidence trails align with ESG reporting packages (see ESG/Finance sections for those deadlines). (California Air Resources Board)

What to Have Now

Access logs, least-privilege, privacy impact checks, continuous backup with scoped restore.

By 2026 You’ll Need

Automated approval trails tied to releases; time-boxed “what a user could see” snapshots for SARs/investigations; standardized evidence exports.

Consequences of Missing

Fines for inadequate controls, extended investigation windows, brand damage, and required remediation under regulator supervision.

How it fits your workflow

Plan work on Agile Board, mirror to Jira, run privacy gates, publish with evidence, and rely on continuous backup for fast, scoped restore.

Short FAQ

Q: Can we prove who accessed a dashboard and when?
A: Yes—access logs provide exportable evidence across Qlik and Power BI.

Q: How do you avoid privacy regressions on release?
A: Privacy gates (policy checklists, approvals, quality thresholds) block non-compliant promotions.

Q: Can restores be scoped for SARs?
A: Yes—object-level, point-in-time restore limits scope to the exact user, dashboard, or artifact.
