Compyl

GDPR isn’t a policy you publish, it’s DSARs, data maps, and 72-hour clocks you run every day.

GDPR lives in operations: knowing where personal data sits, answering data subject requests on deadline, keeping Records of Processing current, and proving a lawful basis for everything. Compyl runs it continuously, data mapping, DSAR and DPIA workflows, and breach-ready evidence.

GDPR Compliance

Compyl makes GDPR operational. It maps where personal data lives, runs DSAR and DPIA workflows, keeps your Records of Processing current, collects Article 32 security evidence, and flags drift, so you can prove compliance on demand instead of scrambling for a regulator or a 72-hour clock.

You can’t protect, or prove, data you can’t find

GDPR turns on operational reality: where personal data lives, who can access it, and how fast you respond. When that drifts from your paperwork, the regulator and the DSAR clock find it first.

01

Data maps go out of date

New tools and integrations move personal data constantly. A Record of Processing built once is wrong within a quarter, and wrong is exactly what a regulator audits.

02

DSARs arrive on a clock

A data subject access request gives you one month. Without knowing where their data lives, every request becomes a manual fire drill across teams.

03

The 72-hour breach window is brutal

From detection to regulator notification you have 72 hours. Scattered evidence and unclear scope make that deadline almost impossible to hit.

One continuous loop, from connected systems to audit-ready

Compyl runs your GDPR program as an always-on cycle, data mapping, lawful basis, and evidence stay in sync automatically.

01

Connect

Integrate cloud, identity, code, endpoint, and HR systems.

02

Collect evidence

Pull audit evidence automatically, in real time.

03

Map to obligations

Link every artifact to its GDPR article and lawful basis.

04

Monitor

Watch controls continuously and flag drift early.

05

Stay audit-ready

Hand auditors a current evidence pack on demand.

06

Stop assembling GDPR evidence by hand

GDPR proof isn't a single report, it's a current data map, a lawful basis for every processing activity, and Article 32 security evidence. Compyl collects it continuously from the systems you already run.

07

Know your evidence is audit-ready, automatically

Collecting evidence is only half the battle; stale or incomplete proof is where audits go sideways. New in Compyl 26.2, Evidence Health continuously scores every artifact the moment it changes, so weak evidence surfaces weeks before an audit, not during it.

08

Catch control drift before the auditor does

Regulators and DSARs don't wait for your annual review. Compyl monitors every obligation continuously, scores your posture in real time, and turns the moment something slips into a tracked task.

09

Your GDPR work becomes a head start on every other framework

GDPR’s Article 32 security obligations overlap heavily with SOC 2, ISO 27001, and NIST. Compyl cross-maps each control so one piece of evidence satisfies every framework it touches.

  • See instantly how GDPR readiness translates to SOC 2 or ISO 27001
  • Add the next framework without starting the program over

The operational heart of GDPR

GDPR is built on seven principles, but compliance is proven through operational duties. Compyl maps evidence to each one.

01

Lawful basis & consent

Establish and record a lawful basis for every processing activity, and manage consent where it applies.

02

Records of Processing

Maintain a current RoPA describing what data you process, why, and where it flows.

03

Data subject rights

Answer access, erasure, and portability requests (DSARs) within one month.

04

DPIAs

Run Data Protection Impact Assessments for high-risk processing before it begins.

05

Security & breaches

Implement appropriate security and notify regulators of a breach within 72 hours.

The deadlines that make GDPR operational

GDPR isn’t a once-a-year audit, it’s two clocks that can start any day. Compyl is built to help you beat both.

01

One month to respond

A data subject request starts a one-month deadline to find, compile, and deliver everything you hold on a person.

02

72 hours to notify

From becoming aware of a breach, you have 72 hours to notify the supervisory authority, with scope, impact, and response.

Not a checkbox tool, a continuous compliance engine

Plenty of tools store a privacy policy. Compyl operationalizes GDPR, data maps, DSARs, and evidence that stay true every day.

01

Continuous, not point-in-time

Data maps, lawful basis, and evidence stay live year-round, so audits and DSARs never catch you out.

02

One connected system

Controls, evidence, risks, and policies in one platform, not a stack of disconnected tools.

03

125+ integrations

Pulls live data from the stack you already run, so posture reflects reality, not snapshots.

04

Agentic AI

AI maps controls, drafts remediations, and offloads busywork, your team stays in control.

05

Multi-framework by design

GDPR evidence carries over to SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, and NIST without redoing the work.

Rated a leader by the teams who use it

Protect personal data once, extend to every framework that follows

Compyl cross-maps controls so the work you do for GDPR carries straight into the next framework on your roadmap.

GDPR questions, answered

Any organization that processes the personal data of people in the EU or EEA, regardless of where the organization is based. That includes most SaaS companies and any business with EU customers, users, or employees.

A Record of Processing Activities (RoPA, Article 30) documents what personal data you process, for what purpose, and where it flows. A lawful basis (Article 6, consent, contract, legitimate interests, and others) is the legal justification you must have and record for each processing activity.

Compyl maps where personal data lives, runs DSAR and DPIA workflows, keeps your RoPA current, collects Article 32 security evidence, scores evidence health, and flags drift, so you can prove compliance on demand instead of scrambling for a regulator or a DSAR deadline.

Compyl 26.2 introduced Evidence Health, which continuously scores every piece of evidence on relevance, freshness, and completeness, with an AI summary of what is missing, so gaps surface before a regulator or a 72-hour clock, not during.

Yes. Compyl cross-maps each control so a single control and its evidence can satisfy GDPR alongside SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, and 70+ other frameworks. Collect once, reuse everywhere it applies.

Security, privacy, and GRC teams, CISOs, DPOs, and IT leaders, at any organization that handles the personal data of EU or EEA residents and needs to run GDPR as an operational program, not a static policy.
