Balancing test

The balance test is a key part of implementing compliant processing of personal data.

Balancing test

Privaon’s data protection specialists offer practical help and advice for preparing a balance test suitable for the individual situation of the data controller.

The balancing test regarding the legitimate interest is drawn up when the legitimate interest of the controller or a third party is used as the legal basis for the processing of personal data. The balancing test is a written assessment of the existence and necessity of the legitimate interest of the data controller and its relation to the interests and fundamental rights of the data subject. Balancing test must be carried out so that, if necessary, it can be shown to the data subjects that the interests and basic rights of the data subjects do not override the legitimate interest of the data controller or a third party.
