The Law

• DPIAs are a legal requirement for processing that is likely to be high risk. Effective DPIA’s enable you to accomplish greater compliance, financial and reputational benefits, they help organisations to demonstrate their accountability and it builds trust and confidence with individuals.
• A DPIA is not a one-off exercise it is an ongoing process.
• Article 35(1) says that you must do a DPIA where a type of processing is likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of individuals
• Failure to carry out a DPIA when required may leave your organisation open to enforcement action, including a fine of up to £8.7 million, or 2% global annual turnover if higher.
• If you identify a high risk that you cannot mitigate, you must consult the ICO before starting the processing. They will give you written advice 8-14 weeks on whether you can process the data.
