How does the processing activity register work?
- 1Define the exact register versions
Register reference. Customer-controlled review reference.
- 2Freeze the review rules
Record processing purposes, parties, data and subject categories, recipients, transfers, retention and security measures. The optional GDPR edition requires explicit confirmed cross-border scope and your controller or processor role. Role-specific completeness checks organize the record without deciding applicability, exemptions or lawfulness.
- 3Inspect complete findings
Review all source-linked results and unresolved items. Free JSON and CSV preserve complete results.
- 4Keep recoverable work
Exact input strings and original files save locally. Restore validates tool identity, table schemas, source hashes and retained history before replacing work. The prior checkpoint and earlier generic work remain separately downloadable.
- 5Prepare the finalized pack
Prepare seven core files and the exact selected attachments, then download them free. Review the fictional sample below.
