Legitimate Interest Impact Assessment

"I need a Legitimate Interest Impact Assessment for implementing a new employee monitoring system in our Dublin office by March 2025, ensuring compliance with Irish employment law and GDPR requirements."

Document background
The Legitimate Interest Impact Assessment (LIIA) is a crucial document required when organizations operating under Irish jurisdiction wish to process personal data based on legitimate interests under Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. This document should be completed before commencing any processing activities that rely on legitimate interests as their legal basis. It contains detailed analysis of the necessity of processing, evaluation of impacts on individual privacy rights, and documentation of safeguards implemented to protect data subjects. The LIIA helps organizations demonstrate compliance with accountability principles under Irish data protection law and GDPR, while providing a structured approach to balancing business needs with privacy rights. It serves as evidence of due diligence in decision-making regarding data processing activities and should be regularly reviewed and updated as circumstances change.
