Legitimate interests covers when a data controller processes personal data because it is necessary for their legitimate aims, balancing that need against individuals' rights. A solicitor in this area helps design and defend such processing—often involving a legitimate interests assessment, proportionality checks, and clear purposes for data use. They draft or review notices, contracts, and data-sharing arrangements, and advise on risk, transparency, and governance to ensure processing stays within legal bounds. They may also advise on operational safeguards, audits, and responses to data subjects’ rights challenges when legitimate interests are claimed as the basis for processing.
A solicitor assesses which processing qualifies as legitimate interests, performs the balancing test, and ensures the basis is documented in a legitimate interests assessment. They draft or refine DPIAs, privacy notices, and data-sharing agreements, delineate purposes, ensure proportionality, and manage consent where needed. They handle vendor assessments, contract data processing terms, security measures, and responses to data subject rights requests, with attention to professional standards, regulatory accountability, and potential liability.
