Abstract: In particular embodiments, a data processing data inventory generation system is configured to: (1) generate a data model (e.g., a data inventory) for one or more data assets utilized by a particular organization; (2) generate a respective data inventory for each of the one or more data assets; and (3) map one or more relationships between one or more aspects of the data inventory, the one or more data assets, etc. within the data model. In particular embodiments, a data asset (e.g., data system, software application, etc.) may include, for example, any entity that collects, processes, contains, and/or transfers personal data (e.g., such as a software application, “internet of things” computerized device, database, website, data-center, server, etc.). For example, a first data asset may include any software or device (e.g., server or servers) utilized by a particular entity for such data collection, processing, transfer, storage, etc.

Abstract: In various embodiments, a Data Model Adaptive Execution System may be configured to take one or more suitable actions to remediate an identified risk in view of one or more regulations (e.g., one or more legal regulations, one or more binding corporate rules, etc.). For example, in order to ensure compliance with one or more standards related to the collection and/or storage of personal data, an entity may be required to modify one or more aspects of a way in which the entity collects, stores, and/or otherwise processes personal data (e.g., in response to a change in a legal or other requirement). In order to identify whether a particular change or other risk trigger requires remediation, the system may be configured to assess a relevance of the risk posed by the risk and identify one or more processing activities or data assets that may be affected by the risk.

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.

In particular embodiments, a data asset (e.g., data system, software application, etc.) may include any entity that collects, processes, contains, and/or transfers personal data (e.g., a software application, database, website, server, etc.). A data asset may include any software or device (e.g., server or servers) utilized by a particular entity for such data collection, processing, transfer, storage, etc. The system may then utilize the generated model to fulfil a data subject access request.

Abstract: In various embodiments, before a data subject request can be processed, the data subject's identity may need to be verified. In various embodiments, the system provides a mechanism to automatically detect the type of authentication required for a particular data subject based on the type of Data Subject Access Request being made and automatically issues a request to the data subject to verify their identity against that form of identification. For example, a subject rights request might only require two types of authentication, but a deletion request may require four types of data to verify authentication. The system may automatically detect which is type of authentication is required based on the DSAR and send an appropriate request to the data subject to verify their identity.

The system may be configured to identify particular data assets and/or personal data in data repositories using any suitable intelligent identity scanning technique.

Abstract: A centralized data repository system, in various embodiments, is configured to provide a central data-storage repository (e.g., one or more servers, databases, etc.) for the centralized storage of personally identifiable information (PII) and/or personal data for one or more particular data subjects. In particular embodiments, the centralized data repository may enable the system to populate one or more data models (e.g., using one or more suitable techniques described above) substantially on-the-fly (e.g., as the system collects, processes, stores, etc. personal data regarding a particular data subject). In this way, in particular embodiments, the system is configured to maintain a substantially up-to-date data model for a plurality of data subjects (e.g., each particular data subject for whom the system collects, processes, stores, etc. personal data).

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for populating a privacy-related data model by: (1) providing a data model that comprises one or more respective populated or unpopulated fields; (2) determining that at least a particular one of the fields for a particular data asset is an unpopulated field; (3) at least partially in response to determining that the at least one particular field is unpopulated, automatically generating a privacy questionnaire comprising at least one question that, if properly answered, would result in a response that may be used to populate the at least one particular unpopulated field; (4) transmitting the privacy questionnaire to at least one individual; (5) receiving a response to the questionnaire, the response comprising a respective answer to the at least one question; and (6) in response to receiving the response, populating the at least one particular unpopulated field with information from the received response.

Abstract: In various embodiments, an organization may be required to comply with one or more legal or industry requirements related to the storage of personal data (e.g., which may, for example, include personally identifiable information) even when responding to and fulfilling Data Subject Access Requests. In particular, when responding to a DSAR, the system may compile one or more pieces of personal data for provision to a data subject. The system may store this compilation of personal data at least temporarily in order to provide access to the data to the data subject. As such, the system may be configured to implement one or more data retention rules in order to ensure compliance with any legal or industry requirements related to the temporary storage of the collected data while still fulfilling any requirements related to providing the data to data subjects that request it, deleting the data upon request, etc.

Abstract: In particular embodiments, a data subject request processing system may be configured to utilize one or more local storage nodes in order to process a data subject access request on behalf of a data subject. In particular embodiments, the one or more local storage nodes may be local to the data subject making the request (e.g., in the same country as the data subject, in the same jurisdiction, in the same geographic area, etc.). The system may, for example, be configured to: (1) receive a data subject access request from a data subject (e.g., via a web form); (2) identify a suitable local storage node based at least in part on the request and/or the data subject; (3) route the data subject access request to the identified local storage node; and (4) process the data subject access request at the identified local storage node.

Abstract: In various embodiments, a data map generation system is configured to receive a request to generate a privacy-related data map for particular computer code, and, at least partially in response to the request, determine a location of the particular computer code, automatically obtain the particular computer code based on the determined location, and analyze the particular computer code to determine privacy-related attributes of the particular computer code, where the privacy-related attributes indicate types of personal information that the particular computer code collects or accesses. The system may be further configured to generate and display a data map of the privacy-related attributes to a user.

Abstract: Data processing systems and methods, according to various embodiments, are adapted for performing a process of procuring a vendor and sub-processes associated therewith, such as performing vendor risk assessments. Timing information for the performance of similar processes in the past is determined and used to generate a timing estimate for procurement of a new vendor or renewing procurement for a vendor. When the new procurement process or sub-processes are completed, the actual time taken to complete such processes or sub-processes is added into a database of vendor procurement information for use in future procurement timing calculations.
