Question 1

Which data privacy laws must legal teams comply with?

Accepted Answer

Ketch helps legal teams manage compliance across frameworks like GDPR, CCPA/CPRA, and LGPD by automating consent, DSARs, and data mapping. Through unified governance, Ketch identifies applicable laws by region and applies policy templates that keep data collection, use, and transfers compliant, minimizing risk and simplifying proof of compliance for every jurisdiction.

Question 2

How can privacy teams operationalize data subject rights?

Accepted Answer

Ketch automates DSAR workflows (intake, identity verification, search, and fulfillment) across all connected systems. Legal teams can track every request under GDPR or CPRA within one dashboard. By mapping personal data to storage locations and automating deletions or exports, Ketch ensures accurate, timely responses and complete audit logs for regulator-ready compliance evidence.

Question 3

How does Ketch help maintain consent records?

Accepted Answer

Ketch captures, stores, and synchronizes user consent across web, mobile, and backend systems. Each consent event is timestamped, policy-linked, and jurisdiction-aware. This ensures compliance with consent-based regulations like GDPR and ePrivacy. Legal teams gain traceable records showing when and how consent was obtained, creating defensible documentation for audits and consumer inquiries.

Question 4

How do legal teams demonstrate compliance to regulators?

Accepted Answer

Ketch simplifies audit preparation by generating compliance evidence: data flow maps, consent histories, DSAR logs, and DPIA templates. The platform centralizes privacy artifacts, enabling regulators to trace compliance measures to specific laws. Legal teams can export audit-ready reports that show continuous monitoring, eliminating manual data gathering for investigations or certifications.

Question 5

How does Ketch manage cross-border data transfers?

Accepted Answer

Ketch detects data flows leaving regulated regions and applies safeguards like Standard Contractual Clauses or transfer impact assessments. The Ketch platform classifies systems by region and ensures only compliant transfers occur. Legal teams can automate lawful basis documentation and policy enforcement, ensuring every cross-border exchange meets GDPR and global privacy standards.

Question 6

Can Ketch automate regulatory updates?

Accepted Answer

Ketch continuously monitors global privacy regulations and updates data handling templates accordingly. Legal teams receive jurisdiction-specific updates that automatically adjust consent banners, retention rules, and DSAR workflows. This proactive compliance approach helps avoid fines and keeps organizations aligned with evolving laws like CPRA, LGPD, and Quebec’s Law 25.

Question 7

How does Ketch support Privacy by Design?

Accepted Answer

Ketch embeds privacy controls directly into data systems. Using APIs and policy enforcement engines, privacy settings such as minimization, masking, and retention limits are built into workflows. Legal teams can set governance rules that engineers apply automatically, ensuring privacy principles are upheld by default throughout product and data lifecycles.

Question 8

What’s Ketch’s role in vendor risk management?

Accepted Answer

Ketch centralizes vendor assessments by tracking each processor’s data handling obligations. The Ketch platform stores contracts, evaluates risk, and monitors data flow compliance. Legal teams can easily verify that all processors meet regulatory standards and apply standardized deletion or transfer policies, ensuring third-party compliance is continuously maintained.

Question 9

How does Ketch improve audit readiness?

Accepted Answer

Ketch unifies privacy evidence (DSAR logs, consent records, transfer logs, and RoPA documentation) into a single repository. During audits, legal teams can generate regulator-friendly reports in minutes. By automating documentation and tracking updates, Ketch ensures every privacy control is demonstrable, traceable, and mapped to specific legal requirements.

Question 10

How can Ketch reduce manual compliance work?

Accepted Answer

Ketch automates repetitive legal compliance processes: data discovery, consent tracking, DSARs, and vendor reviews. Legal teams define rules once; Ketch enforces them across systems using integrations. This reduces manual review effort, cuts response time by over 70%, and ensures ongoing adherence to GDPR, CPRA, and other frameworks through real-time policy enforcement.
