  • Publication number: 20190392019
    Abstract: In various embodiments, a system may be configured to analyze data for a particular consent capture point to identify a change in consent capture rate from the capture point. The system may, for example, be configured to automatically detect that the system has stopped receiving consent records from a particular capture point. In such embodiments, the system may be configured to generate an alert, and transmit the alert to any suitable individual (e.g., privacy team member, IT department member, etc.) regarding the capture point. The system may, for example, enable an entity to identify one or more capture points that may have become non-functional (e.g., as a result of one or more changes to the capture point).

  • Patent number: 10503926
    Abstract: A consent receipt management and data processing system may be configured to provide a centralized repository of consent receipt preferences for a plurality of data subjects. In various embodiments, the system is configured to provide an interface to the plurality of data subjects for modifying consent preferences and capture consent preference changes. The system may provide the ability to track the consent status of pending and confirmed consents. In other embodiments, the system may provide a centralized repository of consent receipts that a third-party system may reference when taking one or more actions related to a processing activity.

  • Patent number: 10440062
    Abstract: A consent receipt management system may, for example, be configured to track data on behalf of an entity that collects and/or processes persona data related to: (1) who consented to the processing or collection of personal data; (2) when the consent was given (e.g., a date and time); (3) what information was provided to the consenter at the time of consent (e.g., a privacy policy, what personal data would be collected following the provision of the consent, for what purpose that personal data would be collected, etc.); (4) how consent was received (e.g., one or more copies of a data capture form, webform, etc. via which consent was provided by the consenter); (5) when consent was withdrawn (e.g., a date and time of consent withdrawal if the consenter withdraws consent); and/or (6) any other suitable data related to receipt or withdrawal of consent.

  • Patent number: 10437412
    Abstract: In particular embodiments, a consent receipt management system is configured to track and analyze one or more attributes of a user interface via which data subjects are requested to provide consent (e.g., consent to process, collect, and/or store personal data) in order to determine which of the one or more attributes are more likely to result in a successful receipt of consent from a data subject. For example, the system may be configured to analyze one or more instances in which one or more data subjects provided or did not provide consent in order to identify particular attributes and/or factors that may increase a likelihood of a data subject providing consent.

  • Publication number: 20190294818
    Abstract: A privacy management system that is configured to process one or more data subject access requests and further configured to: (1) enable a data protection officer to submit an audit request; (2) perform an audit based on one or more parameters provided as part of the request (e.g., one or more parameters such as how long an average request takes to fulfill, one or more parameters related to logging and/or tracking data subject access requests and/or complaints from one or more particular customer advocacy groups, individuals, NGOs, etc.); and (3) provide one or more audit results to the officer (e.g., by displaying the results on a suitable display screen).

  • Publication number: 20190180012
    Abstract: A consent receipt management system may include one or more consent validity scoring systems. In various embodiments, a consent validity scoring system may be configured to detect a likelihood that a user is correctly consenting via a web form. The system may be configured to determine such a likelihood based at least in part on one or more data subject behaviors while the data subject is completing the web form in order to provide consent. In various embodiments, the system is configured to monitor the data subject behavior based on, for example: mouse speed; mouse hovering; mouse position; keyboard inputs; an amount of time spent completing the web form; etc.. The system may be further configured to calculate a consent validity score for each generated consent receipt based at least in part on an analysis of the data subject's behavior.

  • Publication number: 20190180054
    Abstract: A consent receipt management system is configured to: (1) automatically cause a prior, validly received consent to expire (e.g., in response to a triggering event); and (2) in response to causing the previously received consent to expire, automatically trigger a recapture of consent. In particular embodiments, the system may, for example, be configured to cause a prior, validly received consent to expire in response to one or more triggering events such as: (1) a passage of a particular amount of time since the system received the valid consent (e.g., a particular number of days, weeks, months, etc.); (2) one or more changes to a purpose of the data collection for which consent was received; (3) one or more changes to a privacy policy associated with the consent; (4) one or more changes to one or more rules that govern the collection or demonstration of validly received consent; etc.

  • Patent number: 9549306
    Abstract: An Online Charging System (“OCS”) that processes charging on a telecommunications network receives an indication of usage of a telecommunications service by a subscriber. In response to the indication, the OCS determines a configured offering for the service, where the configured offering includes a time period, and a credit and/or debit. The OCS determines if the usage of the service is a first usage within the time period, and when the usage is the first usage, applies the credit and/or debit. The OCS then determines a charge for the usage based on credit and/or debit.
