Keep your data processing organised and transparent.

A complete Record of Processing Activities helps you understand which categories of personal data you collect, why you process them, and how they are protected.

Knowing your data types and security measures for each activity in your organisation gives you control – making it easier to identify risks, respond to audits, and demonstrate compliance.

Centralise all your records, policies, and supporting documents in one place, so your team can access accurate information anytime and stay aligned on responsibilities.

Why Data Privacy Software Instead of Excel and Templates?

Many organisations start their GDPR documentation in Excel. But as processing activities grow, spreadsheets become harder to maintain, review, and audit. GDPR Register replaces manual documentation with a structured, intelligent compliance system.

Why Excel and templates become limiting

Information becomes scattered across files and versions
Manual updates take time and are easy to miss
Ownership and accountability are harder to track
Audit preparation becomes more difficult
Related vendors, systems, and risks stay disconnected

How GDPR Register helps

GDPR Register brings your records, vendors, systems, and compliance workflows into one structured platform, making it easier to keep documentation complete, consistent, and audit-ready.

What do you need to collect?

A GDPR-compliant RoPA should give you a clear overview of what personal data is processed, why it is used, who is responsible, who it is shared with, and how it is protected.

For each processing activity, you have to collect:

  • The name and purpose of the activity
  • The responsible owner, team, or department
  • Categories of personal data processed
  • Categories of data subjects involved
  • The lawful basis for processing
  • Internal access and responsibilities
  • Processors, vendors, or third-party recipients
  • International data transfers, if any
  • Retention periods
  • Technical and organisational security measures
  • Related contracts, policies, and supporting documents

How GDPR Register helps

GDPR Register brings all of these elements into one structured system, making it easier to maintain complete, consistent, and audit-ready records.

Instead of relying on spreadsheets and scattered notes, your team can keep every processing activity up to date in one place, with clear ownership, linked documentation, and AI-powered guidance built into the workflow.
