What does a DPIA do?
The DPIA will:
- Describe the nature, scope, context and purposes of the data processing
- Involve our data processors to help us understand and document their processing activities and identify any associated risks.
- Consider how best to consult individuals (or their representatives) and other relevant stakeholders.
- Seek the advice of our Data Protection Officer (where legally required)
- Check that the processing is necessary and proportionate to our purposes and describe how we will ensure data protection compliance.
- Provide an objective assessment of the likelihood and severity of any risks to individuals’ rights and interests.
- Identify measures we can put in place to eliminate or reduce high risks.
- Record the outcome of the DPIA, including any difference of opinion with our Data Protection Officer or individuals consulted.
