EU Data Protection

What it is

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is the EU's data protection law, in force since May 2018. It applies to any organization — anywhere in the world — that processes personal data of people in the EU. The regulation requires lawful processing, data minimization, security of processing, breach notification within 72 hours, data subject rights (access, deletion, portability, rectification), and Records of Processing Activities (ROPA). Fines reach 4% of global annual revenue or €20M, whichever is higher.

Why Strac Comply for GDPR

GDPR is a data problem before it's a paperwork problem — you cannot honor a deletion request for data you cannot find. Strac Comply is built on Strac's DLP foundation: we continuously discover personal data across SaaS, cloud, and endpoints, generate the ROPA from real processing activities (not interviews), and resolve DSRs by acting on actual data, not promising in a policy doc that you will.

How Strac Comply automates GDPR

Continuous evidence, not annual scramble.

Continuous personal-data discovery — PII, sensitive personal data, and special categories detected across Slack, Gmail, Drive, S3, RDS, and 40+ SaaS apps

Automated Records of Processing Activities (ROPA) — populated from real integrations, not staff interviews; updated as your stack changes

Data Subject Request (DSR) fulfillment — access / deletion / portability requests routed to the systems holding the data, with proof of execution

DPIA (Data Protection Impact Assessment) tracking — templates per Article 35, evidence linked to the underlying processing

Breach detection + 72-hour notification workflow — incident playbook, evidence capture, and notification template generation

78 controls. One evidence base.

Frequently asked

Do we need a Data Protection Officer (DPO) to use this?

Only if GDPR Article 37 requires you to appoint one (public authority, large-scale systematic monitoring, or large-scale special-category processing). Strac Comply works for organizations with or without a formal DPO — the platform supports DPO-assigned workflows, but doesn't require a DPO role to operate.

How does this handle international transfers (Schrems II)?

The platform tracks every cross-border data transfer with the underlying legal mechanism (SCCs, BCRs, adequacy decision). When the legal basis changes — as it did with Privacy Shield → Data Privacy Framework — affected transfers are flagged for review.

Can we use one program for GDPR + CCPA + US state privacy laws?

Yes. The US Data Privacy framework (94 controls covering CCPA, CPRA, and the 19+ US state privacy laws) shares ~60% of its control surface with GDPR. Cross-framework evidence reuse means a single privacy program satisfies both surfaces.
