Data Process Mapping

Data Process Mapping in Brief

We have been helping global companies understand their data for over a decade. In that time, we have developed a proprietary Data Process Mapping approach that captures the information you need to understand risk and make better business decisions. 

Our Approach

The Data Processing Map is linked to the Enhanced Records of Processing Activities (EROPA), another tool we have developed during our work with clients. The EROPA builds on the requirements of GDPR Article 30, it captures relevant information about the business context. It’s a record you can use to respond to regulator or customer inquiries, but more importantly it is a tool for making better business decisions.

The Deliverable

Data Process Mapping starts with the individual or data subject and captures metadata about the interactions with their personal information.

You receive a graphical representation of the Data Processing Activities, linked to a spreadsheet containing the Enhanced Records of Processing Activities.

The Data Process Mapping Summary Report provides the content, our observations, and recommendations for you to implement.
