New features: Improvements based on user feedback + design update 🙌

We’ve updated the platform with a range of new features that give you better oversight, reduce manual work, and offer more flexibility in your compliance and vendor management workflows. Here’s what’s new.

🧭 New top menu and global search

We’ve redesigned the top menu and added a global search feature, making it faster to find what you need – wherever you are in the platform.

• Search across processing activities, assets, policies, documents, and more

• Suggestions appear as you type

• Improved separation of platform features and settings in the new layout

➕ Create new items – quickly, from anywhere

With the new global create button in the top menu, you can now create new elements – such as processing activities, assets, tasks, policies, and vendors – from wherever you are in the platform.

• Save time and reduce navigation

• Uses the same familiar creation flow as in the individual modules

• Ideal for quick registrations during meetings, reviews or ad hoc updates

📊 Gain clarity with risk reports across legal entities

When conducting risk assessments and audits at different times, it can be difficult to maintain a clear overview. That’s why we’ve added the ability to generate risk reports across your legal entities.

These reports provide a snapshot of risk levels across your vendors – for example, data processors within a particular domain – and can be used as a leadership tool for internal decision-making.

• Risk is displayed in a bar chart based on grouped levels (e.g. 1–5) from your selected template

• Only completed assessments are included – and only the latest one per vendor

• Reports can be downloaded as PDF for sharing with management or stakeholders

📄 Download ready-to-use templates under Policies

You’ll now find a new download button under Policies where you can access standard templates – including privacy policies, data processing agreements, retention policies, and information security policies. More documents will be added over the coming months.

• Templates are downloaded as editable Word files and can be reuploaded to the platform

• We welcome requests for new template types

• A useful head start – especially for new customers looking to accelerate their documentation work

📎 Upload documentation when creating an incident

You can now upload documentation directly when registering a new incident – no need to wait until after it’s been saved.

• Upload files directly in the incident creation dialogue

• All attachments are collected within the incident’s documentation

• Supports all file types and unlimited attachments

📥 Export incidents – with full documentation and overview

In addition to uploading, we’ve also made it easier to export your incidents:

• Download a zip file containing both the uploaded documents and a PDF summary of the incident

• Export your full incident log as an Excel file – ideal for internal reviews, reporting or audit purposes

🔔 Overdue tasks? You’ll now be notified

A new, subtle red dot in the task view alerts you to overdue tasks. It’s visible to all users and helps keep everyone on track without creating noise.

• The indicator disappears automatically once the task is updated or completed

• A small addition – but makes staying on top of deadlines easier

🧾 Specify and identify processor and sub-processor roles

You can now clearly indicate whether a legal entity is acting as a processor or sub-processor – and the platform can even suggest it automatically based on your setup.

• Auto-tagging based on how the entity is linked to processing activities or assets

• Roles are shown as tags in the vendor overview, making filtering and reporting easier

• Especially useful in vendor audits and when mapping your business in line with GDPR

🔗 Better management of sub-processors

You can now register and manage sub-processors centrally at the vendor level – instead of adding them manually in multiple places.

• Sub-processors automatically follow the main vendor when linked to assets and processing activities

• Gives you a clearer picture of your vendor chain

• Easily view all sub-processors related to a vendor – just one click away

We hope you’ll enjoy these new features and that they’ll make your daily work just a bit easier. If you have an idea or a feature request, don’t hesitate to reach out – we’re building this platform together with you.
