AI Compliance

GDPR was just the beginning. The EU AI Act comes into force on 2 August 2026 — with fines of up to 35 million euros. agenticonsult helps you become compliant before the deadline.

2 August 2026

EU AI Act compliance deadline

High-risk AI must be compliant by August 2026

From 2 August 2026, the high-risk obligations of the EU AI Act come into force. Fines: up to EUR 35 million or 7% of global annual turnover. The European Commission does not expect any extension for core obligations.

What companies are facing

The EU AI Act does not regulate all AI systems equally. Depending on the risk class, different obligations apply — from transparency requirements to a full conformity assessment.

High-risk AI under the EU AI Act

AI systems deployed in critical areas — personnel decisions, credit granting, law enforcement, critical infrastructure — are classified as high-risk and subject to strict obligations.

Annex III of the EU AI Act lists high-risk application areas
FRIA (Fundamental Rights Impact Assessment) required
CE marking and EU registration mandatory

GDPR + AI Act: Dual obligation

AI systems that process personal data trigger both GDPR and AI Act requirements. Both frameworks are complementary — one assessment is not enough.

DPIA (Data Protection Impact Assessment) under GDPR Art. 35
FRIA (Fundamental Rights Impact Assessment) under AI Act Art. 27
Both assessments can be combined, but not replaced

RAG-specific data privacy risks

The European Data Protection Supervisor (EDPS) has specifically assessed RAG systems and identified: unintentional disclosure of personal data, prompt injection attacks, data accuracy issues, and cross-border data transfers as primary risks.

Unintentional PII disclosure in retrieval results
Prompt injection as a data leak vector
Provenance tracking and deletion obligations for chunk data

The security and compliance framework

Technical compliance is not a single measure — it is an architecture. The following building blocks together form a defensible, compliant AI system.

Chunk-level permissions

Fine-grained access controls at the level of individual data chunks — not just at the document level.

PII detection & masking

Automatic detection and masking of personal data in all processing steps.

Prompt injection protection

System-level protection against manipulation attempts aimed at causing the model to share data without authorization.

Data sovereignty & locality

Processing of sensitive data on EU infrastructure or on-premises — no data transfer to third countries.

Audit trails & proof of compliance

Complete logging of all AI decisions and data accesses. Verifiably compliant — for regulators and internal audits.

End-to-end encryption

Encryption of all data at rest and in transit.

Your path to compliance

1

Inventory

Which AI systems are in use or planned? What data is being processed? agenticonsult creates a complete system overview as the basis for the compliance assessment.

2

Risk classification

Classification of your AI systems under the EU AI Act and GDPR. Identification of all applicable obligations, deadlines, and documentation requirements.

3

Architecture adjustment

Recommendations and frameworks for privacy-compliant system modifications — privacy by design from the start rather than costly retrofitting.

4

Documentation & proof

Building the necessary documentation structure for regulators: DPIA, FRIA, risk register, and audit logs.
