● Data Transfer Impact Assessment Template
Introduction
1.1 Purpose
This Data Transfer Impact Assessment (DTIA) Template aims to provide guidance and structure in assessing the risks and safeguards associated with the transfer of personal data from a gatekeeper online platform operating in Ireland to the United States, considering the Schrems II decision and its implications on data transfers. The Schrems II decision invalidated the EU-US Privacy Shield and imposed additional requirements on data transfers relying on Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) and other mechanisms to ensure an adequate level of data protection.
1.2 Scope
This DTIA covers the evaluation of data transfer mechanisms, legal implications, and technical safeguards to ensure compliance with applicable data protection laws, primarily the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), relevant US privacy laws, and any other jurisdictions outside the EU and the US that may be relevant in the context of international data transfers.
1.3 Assumptions
The data controller is a gatekeeper online platform similar to *.
The data transfer is between Ireland and the United States.
Data Transfer Overview

Clarify whether data processing activities in the US are performed by the same organization or a different entity. Address whether the data transfer involves onward transfers, as this may require additional considerations and safeguards. Include details about the frequency and volume of data transfers to provide more context about the data transfer. Describe the method of data transfer (e.g., through an API or other data transfer protocol) and any intermediate steps or data transformations that may occur during the transfer.
2.2 Data Subjects
Identify the categories of data subjects whose personal data will be transferred, e.g., platform users, employees, contractors, etc.
2.3 Data Categories
List the categories of personal data being transferred, e.g., names, email addresses, IP addresses, etc.
2.4 Third Parties Involved
Identify any third parties involved in the data transfer or subsequent processing, including data processors and sub-processors.
Legal Basis for Data Transfer
3.1 GDPR Compliance
Explain the legal basis for processing the personal data under the GDPR (e.g., consent, contract, legitimate interest, etc.).
3.2 Data Transfer Mechanism
Identify and describe the data transfer mechanism used to ensure an adequate level of protection, such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs), Binding Corporate Rules (BCRs), or an adequacy decision. Include a brief explanation of each transfer mechanism, especially in light of the Schrems II decision, which invalidated the EU-US Privacy Shield and imposed additional requirements on data transfers relying on SCCs and other mechanisms. Describe why the chosen mechanism is appropriate for this particular transfer and discuss any supplementary measures that may be necessary to ensure compliance with the Schrems II decision.
3.3 US Privacy Laws Compliance
Assess the compliance of the data importer with relevant US privacy laws, such as the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), the Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (VCDPA), any applicable federal privacy laws, and other potential US state privacy laws that may emerge in the future or are not yet enacted. Consider evaluating the data importer's alignment with any sector-specific privacy laws that may apply, such as HIPAA for healthcare or COPPA for children's privacy.
