Integritetsvurderingsrapporten

Integritetsvurderingsrapporten, often translated as Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA) report, is a document that outlines the findings and recommendations of a data protection impact assessment. This assessment is a process required by data protection regulations, such as the GDPR, for processing operations that are likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of individuals. The report serves as a comprehensive record of this assessment.

The report typically begins with a description of the processing operation being assessed, including its purpose, the nature of the personal data involved, and the context in which it occurs. It then identifies the potential risks to individuals' data protection rights, such as risks of discrimination, identity theft, financial loss, or reputational damage. These risks are evaluated based on their likelihood and severity.

Following the identification and evaluation of risks, the integritetsvurderingsrapporten details the measures that are already in place or proposed to mitigate these risks. This can include technical measures like encryption and pseudonymization, as well as organizational measures such as data minimization policies and staff training. The report also considers whether the proposed processing is necessary and proportionate to its purpose.

Finally, the integritetsvurderingsrapporten concludes with a summary of the findings and a decision on whether to proceed with the processing, subject to certain conditions, or to halt or modify the processing. It is a crucial tool for demonstrating accountability and ensuring that data protection is considered from the outset of any new processing activities.
