Osano
Streamlines privacy compliance for no-code apps effortlessly.
What is Osano?
Try OsanoOsano Data Mapping helps privacy teams find, classify, and document where personal and sensitive data lives, and how it flows across systems and applications. It’s designed to reduce the time and risk involved in data discovery by replacing manual spreadsheet work with automated discovery workflows, visual mapping, and privacy-specific automation. This supports faster compliance work such as DSAR fulfillment, RoPA generation, and privacy impact assessments (PIAs/DPIAs), including for organizations working on privacy programs that involve AI.
What does Osano Data Mapping do for privacy teams?
Osano Data Mapping automates the discovery and documentation of where personal and sensitive data resides, how it flows, and who accesses it. It’s built to help privacy professionals complete downstream compliance activities faster, including subject rights requests, RoPA records, and privacy impact assessments, by locating relevant data and reducing manual effort.
How does Osano Data Mapping help automate data discovery and classification?
Osano connects to your SSO and uses a library of pre-built connectors to auto-discover systems and classify personal data across both structured and unstructured sources. You can also integrate proprietary systems using RESTful APIs.
Can Osano Data Mapping support DSAR requests and privacy impact assessments?
Yes. Mapping enables faster and more accurate responses to DSARs, helps maintain data inventory for Records of Processing Activities (RoPAs), and supports DPIAs/PIAs by giving insight into data activity when business changes require assessment and compliance reporting.
How does Osano Data Mapping generate RoPA (records of processing activities)?
Osano automatically generates a record of processing activities (RoPA) at the same time you create your data map, using the same store of information—so you don’t have to do the same work twice.
How is the data map kept up to date over time?
Osano keeps the data map current through automated discovery workflows, SSO re-sync, and owner inputs. This is intended to reduce errors and maintenance overhead that often come from manual spreadsheet-based mapping while keeping the information auditable.
Is Osano Data Mapping designed to support common privacy laws like GDPR and CCPA/CPRA?
Osano Data Mapping is designed to support privacy compliance work for laws including GDPR, CCPA/CPRA, and LGPD, with coverage also described for upcoming regulations such as Maryland’s Online Data Privacy Act (effective Oct 1, 2025).
