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).

Abstract: In particular embodiments, in response a data subject submitting a request to delete their personal data from an organization's systems, the system may: (1) automatically determine where the data subject's personal data is stored; (2) in response to determining the location of the data (which may be on multiple computing systems), automatically facilitate the deletion of the data subject's personal data from the various systems; and (3) determine a cause of the request to identify one or more processing activities or other sources that result in a high number of such requests.

Abstract: In particular embodiments, a data processing consent management system may be configured to utilize one or more age verification techniques to at least partially authenticate the data subject's ability to provide valid consent (e.g., under one or more prevailing legal requirements) in order to collect, store, and or process the subject's personal data. For example, according to one or more particular legal or industry requirements, an individual (e.g., data subject) may need to be at least a particular age (e.g., an age of majority, an adult, over 18, over 21, over 13, or any other suitable age) in order to provide valid consent. Data processing systems may generate and store one or more consent records memorializing valid consent for data processing from data subjects in response to confirming that the data subject is old enough to provide such consent.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and non-transitory computer readable storage media are disclosed for determining clusters of similar digital documents using unique document signatures. Specifically, the disclosed system processes digital text in a digital document to tokenize character strings (e.g., words) in the digital document by combining a subset of character values and string lengths in the character strings. Additionally, the disclosed system generates a document signature for the digital document by combining subsets of tokens generated for the digital document into a token sequence indicative of the digital text in the digital document. The disclosed system determines a cluster of similar digital documents including the digital document by comparing the document signature of the digital document to document signatures corresponding to a plurality of digital documents.

Abstract: A mobile application privacy analysis system is described, where the system scans a mobile device to identify files associated with a particular SDK and generates a tokenized name for the SDK. The tokenized name includes tokens representing the SDK vendor and one or more functions of the SDK. Using the tokenized name, the system then determines corresponding categories for each functionality token and score for each such category. Based on the scores, the system determines the most significant category and assigns that category to the SDK for use in privacy analysis. The system may also, or instead, determine a vendor category using the vendor token and assign that category to the SDK. Weighting factors may be applied to the scores for the categories associated with the functionality tokens and vendor tokens.
