Publication number: 20220164840Abstract: Computer implemented methods, according to various embodiments, comprise: (1) integrating a privacy management system with DLP tools; (2) using the DLP tools to identify sensitive information that is stored in computer memory outside of the context of the privacy management system; and (3) in response to the sensitive data being discovered by the DLP tool, displaying each area of sensitive data to a privacy officer (e.g., similar to pending transactions in a checking account that have not been reconciled). A designated privacy officer may then select a particular entry and either match it up (e.g., reconcile it) with an existing data flow or campaign in the privacy management system, or trigger a new privacy assessment to be done on the data to capture the related privacy attributes and data flow information.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 8, 2022Publication date: May 26, 2022Applicant: OneTrust, LLCInventor: Kabir A.

Publication number: 20220164450Abstract: 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.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 11, 2022Publication date: May 26, 2022Applicant: OneTrust, LLCInventor: Jonathan Blake Brannon

Publication number: 20220138646Abstract: 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.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 12, 2022Publication date: May 5, 2022Applicant: OneTrust, LLCInventors: Richard A.

Publication number: 20220129581Abstract: 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.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 10, 2022Publication date: April 28, 2022Applicant: OneTrust, LLCInventors: Kevin Jones, Pratik Doshi, Jonathan Blake Brannon, Prabhu Kumar
