description	[COMMUNITY] Assess Austrian DSG / DSGVO obligations — Datenschutzbehörde patterns, §§12–13 DSG special provisions, image processing (§12 DSG), and Austrian enforcement practice

⚠️ Community-contributed command — not part of the officially-maintained ArcKit baseline. Output should be reviewed by qualified DSB-Beauftragter / DPO / Rechtsabteilung before reliance. Citations to Datenschutzbehörde (DSB) / EU regulations may lag the current text — verify against the source. Some citations are marked [NEEDS VERIFICATION] and should be confirmed by an Austrian data protection practitioner before external use.

You are helping an enterprise architect generate an Austrian Data Protection Assessment — the Austrian-specific GDPR layer applied by the Datenschutzbehörde (DSB) under the Datenschutzgesetz (DSG 2018, BGBl. I Nr. 165/1999 as amended). Run this after $arckit-eu-rgpd to add Austrian obligations that go beyond the EU GDPR baseline.

User Input

$ARGUMENTS

Instructions

Note: Before generating, scan projects/ for existing project directories. For each project, list all ARC-*.md artifacts, check external/ for reference documents, and check 000-global/ for cross-project policies. If no external docs exist but they would improve output, ask the user.

Step 0: Read existing artifacts from the project context

MANDATORY (warn if missing):

• DATA (Data Model) — Extract: all entities with personal data, special category data (besondere Kategorien), data subjects, data flows, retention periods, third-party processors
  • If missing: warn that an AT DSG assessment requires a data model to identify personal data categories
• RGPD (EU RGPD Assessment) — Extract: legal basis mapping, DPIA screening results, DPO determination, international transfer analysis
  • If missing: warn that $arckit-at-dsgvo should be run after $arckit-eu-rgpd for best results. Proceed with available data.

RECOMMENDED (read if available, note if missing):

• REQ (Requirements) — Extract: data requirements (DR-xxx), compliance requirements, authentication requirements (Bürgerkarte / Handy-Signatur / ID Austria integration)
• STKE (Stakeholder Analysis) — Extract: data subject categories (especially minors, patients, employees covered by ArbVG co-determination)

OPTIONAL (read if available, skip silently):

• SECD (Secure by Design) — Extract: security measures relevant to Art. 32 GDPR assessment
• RISK (Risk Register) — Extract: existing privacy-related risks for cross-reference

Step 0b: Read external documents and policies

• Read any external documents in external/ — extract previous DSB correspondence, Verarbeitungsverzeichnis (Art. 30 ROPA), existing Auftragsverarbeitungsverträge (DPAs), Betriebsvereinbarungen for employee data
• Read any global policies in 000-global/policies/ — extract Datenschutzerklärung, data retention schedule, DSB-Meldungen policy
• If a prior DSB assessment or Datenschutzerklärung is found, use it to pre-populate compliance status and identify gaps.

Step 1: Identify or Create Project

Identify the target project from the hook context. If the project doesn't exist:

1. Use Glob to list projects/*/ directories and find the highest NNN-* number
2. Calculate the next number (zero-padded to 3 digits)
3. Slugify the project name
4. Use the Write tool to create projects/{NNN}-{slug}/README.md
5. Set PROJECT_ID and PROJECT_PATH

Step 2: Read Source Artifacts

Read all documents from Step 0. Identify:

• Presence of health data (Gesundheitsdaten) → triggers §§12–13 DSG + ELGA interop section
• Image/video processing (Bildverarbeitung, CCTV) → triggers §§12–13 DSG special regime
• Employee data processing → triggers ArbVG Betriebsvereinbarung: §96 Abs 1 Z 3 (control measures affecting human dignity) and/or §96a (Personaldatensysteme)
• Scientific research → triggers §§7–8 DSG (Forschungszwecke); DSB approval (Genehmigung) under §7 DSG, and the Art. 89(1) data-subject-rights exemption under §2d FOG (Forschungsorganisationsgesetz) — there is no "§2d DSG"
• Minors as data subjects → triggers §4(4) DSG (AT age of digital consent: 14 years)
• Third-party processors in non-EEA → triggers TIA with DSB transfer focus

Step 3: Template Reading

Read the template (with user override support):

• First, check if .arckit/templates-custom/at-dsgvo-template.md exists in the project root
• If found: Read the user's customized template
• If not found: Read .arckit/templates/at-dsgvo-template.md
• Then read .arckit/templates/_partials/RENDERING.md and resolve the <!-- DOC-CONTROL-HEADER --> marker in the template before writing. ATDSG carries the Austria regime, which hard-routes to _partials/document-control-at.md whatever the operator's user config says.

Step 4: Generate AT Data Protection Assessment

CRITICAL: Use the Write tool to create the assessment document.

1. Detect version: Check for existing ARC-{PROJECT_ID}-ATDSG-v*.md files:

   • No existing file → VERSION="1.0"
   • Existing file → minor increment if refreshed, major if scope changed significantly

2. Auto-populate Document Control:

   • Document ID: ARC-{PROJECT_ID}-ATDSG-v{VERSION}
   • Status: DRAFT
   • Created Date: {current_date}
   • Next Review Date: {current_date + 12 months}
   • Classification: Eingeschränkt (or Vertraulich where criminal-law confidentiality applies); privacy assessments contain sensitive risk information.
   • Add note: "This document supplements ARC-{PROJECT_ID}-RGPD-v*.md with Austrian/DSB-specific requirements"

3. Section 1: AT DSG Regulatory Framework

   • Applicable texts table: DSGVO (EU 2016/679), DSG (BGBl. I 165/1999 idgF); law-enforcement/justice data processing under the DSG 3. Hauptstück §§36–61 (transposing RL (EU) 2016/680; StPO §§134–143b apply as lex specialis); sector laws (ELGA-G for health, GTelG 2012, ArbVG §96 Abs 1 Z 3 / §96a)
   • DSB as supervisory authority — contact: dsb.gv.at
   • Austrian age of digital consent: 14 years (§4(4) DSG, lower than GDPR default 16) — flag if minors in scope
   • Parallel BVwG (Bundesverwaltungsgericht) review pathway for DSB decisions [NEEDS VERIFICATION: confirm current venue rules]

4. Section 2: §§12–13 DSG — Image and Video Processing (conditional — only if CCTV/imagery detected)

   • ⚠️ Disputed applicability: the BVwG held §§12–13 DSG inapplicable because of the primacy of the GDPR / absence of an opening clause (BVwG W256 2214855-1, 20.11.2019; W211 2210458-1, 25.11.2019), while the OGH has continued to apply them (6 Ob 150/19f). Treat §§12–13 as contested and assess CCTV primarily on the GDPR (Art. 6 lawfulness, Art. 12–14 transparency); apply §§12–13 conservatively as a belt-and-braces layer, not as the settled legal basis. Confirm the current position with a practitioner.
   • §12 DSG specific lawfulness grounds for image processing (if relied on, note as contested — see above)
   • Labelling obligation (Kennzeichnungspflicht) — visible notice with responsible controller. This survives regardless of the §§12–13 dispute, as it also flows from the GDPR transparency duties (Art. 12–14)
   • Retention limit: 72 hours default under §13 DSG unless justified documented exception (contested basis; keep retention short and documented on GDPR necessity/proportionality grounds in any case)

Before writing the file, read .arckit/references/quality-checklist.md and verify all Common Checks pass.

Write the document to:

projects/{project_id}/ARC-{PROJECT_ID}-ATDSG-v{VERSION}.md

Next steps:
1. {If DPIA required: Run $arckit-dpia}
2. {If employee monitoring: draft Betriebsvereinbarung §96a ArbVG}
3. {If no eu-rgpd baseline: Run $arckit-eu-rgpd first}
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Important Notes

• Run after eu-rgpd: This command adds the Austrian layer on top of the EU GDPR baseline. For best results, run $arckit-eu-rgpd first, then this command.
• Austrian age of digital consent is 14, not 16: Austria chose the lower limit allowed by GDPR (§4(4) DSG). Do not apply the GDPR default of 16.
• §§12–13 DSG on image processing is contested: AT retained a standalone image-processing regime, but the BVwG held §§12–13 DSG inapplicable for want of a GDPR opening clause (W256 2214855-1; W211 2210458-1, 2019), while the OGH still applies them (6 Ob 150/19f). Assess CCTV/imagery primarily on the GDPR and treat §§12–13 as a contested additional layer — do not present them as the settled legal basis.
• ArbVG Betriebsvereinbarung is separate from GDPR: Employee monitoring capability requires a works-council agreement even where GDPR lawfulness is established — §96 Abs 1 Z 3 for control measures affecting human dignity, §96a for Personaldatensysteme. Flag if employee monitoring or a personnel data system is possible.
• Public authorities are largely exempt from GDPR fines (§30 Abs 5 DSG): Austria used the Art. 83(7) opening clause so the DSB cannot impose Geldbußen on Behörden, öffentliche Stellen and Körperschaften öffentlichen Rechts (corrective measures still apply). For public-sector controllers, present the Art. 83 fine ceilings as generally inapplicable — but flag that ausgegliederte / competitively-active entities may fall outside the exemption.
• Verify citations: Austrian data protection practice evolves through DSB decisions and BVwG case law. Items marked [NEEDS VERIFICATION] must be confirmed against current DSB guidance before external use.
• Use Write Tool: AT DSG assessments cover multiple Austrian-specific regulations and are typically 2,000–4,000 words. Always use the Write tool.

Suggested Next Steps

After completing this command, consider running:

• $arckit-dpia -- Run a full Data Protection Impact Assessment if AT DSB screening flags high risk (when 2+ AT DPIA criteria triggered or DSB published Blacklist applies)
• $arckit-eu-rgpd -- Run the pan-EU GDPR baseline first if not already completed (when No prior eu-rgpd assessment exists for this project)
• $arckit-at-nisg -- Assess NISG obligations where personal data is processed by Essential/Important entities (when Entity potentially qualifies as Essential or Important under NISG)
