Answering a Data Inventory Survey

Data Inventory Surveys allow DPO's to collect information about a processing activity from the appropriate business owner. Upon receiving a data inventory survey, business owners can add answers and submit back survey answers to the Data Processing Officer (DPO) for review. When the answers from the business owners are submitted back, the DPO can easily populate the data inventory based on the answers provided. 

For example, when you receive a System Survey, Processing Activity Survey, or a Partner Survey, you can answer and submit back the entire survey. Using the Data Inventory module you can quickly answer questions, assign parts of a Survey to your internal team, and submit your answers back to the DPO.

Note: We currently support Processing Activity, System, and Partner survey templates.
