    Abstract: Data stored on a data asset may be migrated to another data asset while maintaining compliance to applicable regulations. A data asset may experience a failure. Based on the type of data stored by that data asset and the applicable regulations, requirements, and/or restrictions that relate to a transfer of that type data from that data asset, a target data asset may be determined. The data stored on the data asset may then be transferred to the target data asset. The disclosed systems may use data models and/or data maps in determining the requirements for a data transfer and selecting target data assets.

  • Patent number: 11188615
    Abstract: In various embodiments, a data processing consent capture system may be configured to prompt the data subject to consent to one or more types of data processing (e.g., to provide a desired consent) in response to identifying particular cookies (e.g., or types of data processing) that a data subject has not consented to. The system may, for example, substantially automatically prompt the data subject to consent for one or more particular types of data processing in response to determining that the user (e.g., data subject) has requested that a website or other system perform one or more functions that are not possible without a particular type of consent from the data subject. The system may, for example, prompt the user to consent in time for a certain interaction with the website, application, etc.

  • Patent number: 11182501
    Abstract: Responding to a data subject access request includes receiving the request and identifying the requestor and source. In response to identifying the requestor and source, a computer processor determines whether the data subject access request is subject to fulfillment constraints, including whether the requestor or source is malicious. If so, then the computer processor denies the request or requests a processing fee prior to fulfillment. If not, then the computer processor fulfills the request.

  • Publication number: 20210342454
    Abstract: Data processing systems and methods, according to various embodiments, are adapted for efficiently processing data to allow for the streamlined assessment of risk ratings for one or more vendors. In various embodiments, the systems/methods may use one or more particular vendor attributes (e.g., as determined from scanning one or more webpages associated with the particular vendor) and the contents of one or more completed privacy templates for the vendor to determine a vendor risk rating for the particular vendor. As a particular example, the system may scan a website associated with the vendor to automatically determine one or more security certifications associated with the vendor and use that information, along with information from a completed privacy template for the vendor, to calculate a vendor risk rating that indicates the risk of doing business with the vendor.

  • Publication number: 20210342415
    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).

  • Publication number: 20210342759
    Abstract: Data processing systems and methods, according to various embodiments, are adapted for determining an applicable privacy policy based on various criteria associated with a user and the associated product or service. User and product criteria may be obtained automatically and/or based on user input and analyzed by a privacy policy rules engine to determine the applicable policy. Text from the applicable policy can then be presented to the user. A default policy can be used when no particular applicable policy can be identified using by the rules engine. Policies may be ranked or prioritized so that a policy can be selected in the event the rules engine identifies two, conflicting policies based on the criteria.
