How DataShyre Can Help You Mature Your Privacy Program
Building, running, and managing an efficient data privacy program can feel overwhelming. If you prioritize maturing one element of your program, other elements may suffer; if you strive to meet a basic standard with all elements of a data privacy program, you may never have the time or resources to increase your program's maturity level as a whole.
The trick lies in automating and streamlining the right tasks.
Broadly, the elements of a data privacy program can be divided into two groups. The first group requires human expertise — yours. Many of the elements of a mature, well-rounded privacy program can only be nurtured by a privacy professional. The second group may require less expertise to mature, less of a human touch, or more expertise that doesn't relate to a privacy professional's core skillset. To gain the time and resources to focus your attention on the first group, you need to automate and streamline the elements contained within the second.
With DataShyre, you can automate and streamline the activities associated with a number of elements in a mature data privacy program, including:
Consent Management
Taking a fully homegrown approach to consent management is asking for trouble. Consider the workload involved: reviewing the tens of thousands of words of legalese in the text of every data privacy regulation covering the jurisdictions where your customers and website visitors live; translating those into compliant banners that fire for visitors from those jurisdictions; configuring data trackers to fire or not fire depending on consent preferences; and maintaining this system every time the law or your website changes.
DataShyre's Consent Management Platform handles this process for you. Quickly deploy compliant consent banners across your websites, auto-discover the tags and scripts collecting visitor data, and ensure they fire or are blocked based on individual consent preferences — all without burdening your development or IT teams.
Subject Rights Request Management
DataShyre provides a comprehensive solution for capturing and processing subject rights requests, including auto-generated request forms and dedicated channels for accepting DSARs, automated task assignment so stakeholders across your organization know exactly what they need to do, automated third-party vendor notification, and automated data discovery, deletion, and packaging. Using DataShyre to manage subject rights requests centralizes the DSAR workflow, reducing your reliance on multiple tools and manual processes to fulfill requests on time.
Data Mapping
Whether it's filling out a RoPA or data inventory, responding to DSARs, or identifying privacy risk across your organization, the first step is understanding where your organization stores personal data. DataShyre Data Mapping integrates with your systems to discover and classify personal data automatically, giving you a visual, navigable data map of your organization's data landscape. You'll be able to score data stores by privacy risk, identify high-priority systems at a glance, and flag irrelevant or deprecated stores — giving your privacy program the foundation it needs for downstream compliance activities.
Vendor Risk Management
Vendor risk is especially challenging to manage since you don't have the same visibility into your vendors' operations as you do your own. DataShyre enables you to rapidly evaluate vendor privacy practices, automatically identify vendors through consent scanning and data mapping integrations, receive alerts when vendor privacy policies change or when vendors face regulatory action, and launch templated vendor assessments for regular or as-needed reviews.
Privacy Risk Assessments
Manually performing privacy risk assessments can be highly time-consuming. DataShyre provides a library of standards-based templates for assessment types like vendor risk assessments, data privacy impact assessments, RoPAs, and more. You can quickly view which assessments are in progress, which are completed, and which are at risk — with automated reminders to keep assignees on track and completed assessments stored in one place.
Save Time for the Work Only You Can Complete
With DataShyre automating the tasks described above and more, you'll have the bandwidth to turn your attention to the critical privacy activities that take your program to the next level — including privacy-by-design processes, training and awareness, your privacy culture, governance and accountability, and ongoing program management.
