The Personal Information Impact Assessment is a crucial compliance document required under Nigerian data protection law, particularly the Nigeria Data Protection Regulation (NDPR) 2019. It becomes necessary when organizations plan to implement new systems, processes, or projects involving personal data processing, or when making significant changes to existing processing activities. The assessment helps organizations identify and minimize privacy risks, ensure compliance with Nigerian data protection requirements, and demonstrate accountability to regulators. The document typically includes detailed analysis of data flows, risk assessments, compliance evaluations, and mitigation strategies, making it essential for organizations processing personal data in Nigeria or handling Nigerian citizens' data.
