Manage data processing agreements, consent declarations and joint controller agreements – structured and legally compliant. With an online signature workflow for any number of signatories per contracting party, reminders for pending signatures, automatic linking to your processing activities and central sub-processor maintenance across all contracts.
Data Processing
Create DPA drafts easily from text modules. Contracts are automatically linked to the data recipients and suppliers in your processing activities. Online signatures and web forms simplify the process significantly. A contract only counts as signed once all registered persons of both contracting parties have signed; the overview filters specifically for pending signatures.
Consent
Create GDPR-compliant consent declarations with all mandatory fields per Art. 7 and Art. 13/14 GDPR. Manage withdrawals in a structured manner and document everything traceably. Online signatures and a central overview of all consents ensure transparency.
Features
From DPA creation through consent management to automatic revision – all the tools for GDPR-compliant contract management.
The system checks for matching role, company, first name and last name between data recipient/supplier and DPA. Automatic linking ensures that all data processing is contractually secured.
Documentation of joint controller agreements. The "contract relationships" section shows linked processing activities, processing activities carried out on behalf of a controller and data processing systems – links can also be created and removed manually and are retained during automatic assignment.
Upon approval or signing, an immutable revision (PDF/ZIP or HTML) is created automatically. Two revisions can be compared visually – additions in green, removals in red – and verified for integrity via stored SHA-256 checksums. Reminders prompt you to review your contracts.
All contracts and consent declarations centrally in filterable overviews. Status, contracting parties and last update at a glance.
Contract text with signatures and timestamps exportable as PDF or DOCX. Complete export packages including attachments are provided as ZIP.
Record any number of signatories per contracting party. Each signatory receives their own link to view and sign the contract; the contract only counts as signed once all registered persons of both contracting parties have signed. Reminders are sent specifically to outstanding signatories, and the “Signatures” column in the overview can be filtered by pending signatures. The detail page shows the signature status for each contracting party.
Maintain the sub-processor list once and use it to replace the sub-processors of all selected contracts. Notification to the contracting parties of signed contracts is pre-filled from templates – with placeholders for added, removed and changed sub-processors. Before saving, a summary shows additions, removals and changes per contract; each change creates an entry in the activity log. Contracts that are currently out for signature or archived are excluded from the bulk update; the notification includes an attachment per contract with the sub-processor list applicable to it.
FAQ
Three types: data processing agreements under Art. 28 GDPR, joint controller agreements under Art. 26 GDPR and consent declarations under Art. 7 GDPR. All three come with filterable overviews and automatic revisions on approval, and DPAs and joint controller agreements also have an online signature workflow. You upload existing contract documents and store them directly on the relevant contract.
In the edit dialog you enter the signatories for each contracting party, as many as needed on each side. Each person receives their own link to view and sign the contract. The contract only counts as signed once all listed people from both parties have signed. Reminders go specifically to those still outstanding, and the signatures column shows you which contracts are still open.
You maintain the sub-processor list once and select the contracts concerned; the list then replaces the sub-processors of all selected contracts. The notification to partners of signed contracts is pre-filled from templates, which are wording aids and not legal advice, and includes the applicable list for each contract as an attachment. Before saving, a summary shows additions, removals and changes for each contract.
Contracts are automatically linked to the data recipients and suppliers in your processing activities; the system matches role, company, first name and surname. The contract relationships section shows the connected recipients and systems on the contract, and on the processing activity it shows the contracts covering its recipients. You can also set missing links by hand.
You generate the draft from text modules that you maintain once and reuse for many contracts. To agree it, you request feedback from the contract partner and can adjust the recipient address for each request. Alternatively you conclude DPAs via a web form embedded in your website. Comments and tasks keep the coordination within your team on the contract.
On approval or signature, an immutable revision is created automatically, which you can compare with earlier versions and check for integrity using SHA-256 checksums. You export the contract text with signatures and timestamps as PDF or DOCX, and complete export packages including attachments are provided as ZIP. Follow-up reminders prompt regular reviews of your contracts.
