Key features

Platform Highlights

These are the features that set Priverion apart. They were built from the ground up for corporate groups, not bolted onto a generic GRC tool.
Platform Highlights

Model Context Protocol (Chat with your data)

AI is here to stay. We implement AI where it makes sense and supports you as a privacy professional. This is why we not only implemented fixed AI buttons for specific actions, but also implemented the Model Context Protocol. This allows you to use any agent-platform or MCP enabled chat to talk to the Priverion Platform and its data. Access is managed using the RBAC (Role based) access control.
Platform Highlights

Group Management

Group Management enables your organization to create multiple companies and share compliance information such as Record of Processing Activities (ROPA), Assets, Policies, Controls etc. Updates can be easily pushed to the companies and request for changes can be made by other group members.
Platform Highlights

Sharing

Sharing your processing activities, assets, controls, policies etc. allows to standardize privacy compliance in your group. With every company having the same or locally adjusted records of a shared service, every company is audit ready. Updates can be easily requested, pushed as well as accepted or declined. Depending on your business case.
Platform Highlights

Time Machine

One of our magic features. Activate the Time Machine, select a date and surf the Priverion Platform with the information of that specific date and time, A dream for any compliance officer trying to find out which privacy notice was shown on a specific data collection point two years ago. Or having to show a processing activity with the information which was present at date of a incident.
Platform Highlights

Automations

Using automations you can automate any workflow and process which you need. For example when a new ROPA or Asset is created that somebody is notified. Or if there is a Jira ticket which is tagged with Privacy and then a task is created in the Priverion Platform. You can also create weekly or monthly reports and send them to your email.
Platform Highlights

Multi-Actions

Having to do the same thing multiple times on different elements (processes, assets, vendors, DPIAs, Questionnaires, Tasks etc.) can be frustrating without smart multi-action capabilities. Using our multi-action tool, you can easily assign multiple elements to a responsible person, change the status, do an AI action, set a standard, share with other companies, change access, link other elements etc. For even more complex actions, you can additionaly use the AI with MCP. Just tell the chat what you want to have done and see the magic work.
Platform Highlights

Enterprise SSO for every customer (SAML, SCIM, Entra, Okta)

Most companies use SSO to secure their logins. The Priverion Platform supports all common SSO Platforms. Every customer has access to these. No need for extra packages or add-ons etc. We support SAML, SCIM, Entra and Okta.
Platform Highlights

RBAC (Role Based Access Control)

With RBAC you can build your own roles. A user should be able to edit a ROPA but not share it. Sure no problem. A user should only be able to read-view assets and only edit the ones where she is a responsible person. No problem. With fine-grained access controls all cases can be accounted for.

Risk & Controls

Most compliance tools bolt on risk management as an afterthought. We built it into the core so your risk register, controls, and policies actually talk to each other.
Risk & Controls

Risk Register

Having a register with all of the companies risk, allows for risk oversight and standardization of risk evaluation. You can get your risks per scope (Product X, Business Unit/Department Z, etc.) or by risk domain (Cybersecurity, Reputational, Financial, Employee related etc.). Additionally you can drill down in each risk source (Process, Asset, Vendor etc.) to evaluate the individual risk driving the domain risk.
Risk & Controls

Controls

Controls and TOM (Technical and Organizational) Measures are used to mitigate any risk within the organization. Be this for processes, assets, vendors or any other element of the company. Using the same adjustable base of Controls, allows the company to standardize the risk mitigation, but also to easily compare internal control fulfillment with e.g. vendor control fulfillment.
Risk & Controls

Policies

Upload or Link your policies into the Priverion Platform. Once uploaded you can attach review automations to it and have your policies reviewed yearly. Additionally you can also create campaigns and send out your policies for confirmation to your employees. Monitor the acceptance rate and handle exclusions.
Risk & Controls

Reminders & Notifications

Send reminders and notification on any change or inactivity. Let the Priverion Platform follow up with your business owners which are slow to provide the necessary information. Automatically remind them and get weekly reports on escalations where nothing is happening and you might have to call them.

GDPR compliance

Privacy

From ROPA to DPIA to data flows: everything a DPO needs to keep group-wide privacy programs current, auditable, and compliant with GDPR and Swiss FADP.
Privacy

Record of Processing Activities

As the core of any privacy program, the ROPA allows you to connect not only the data collection points (from which personal data flows into your organization), but also connect it to the affected person groups, the assets and the vendors. The ROPA is the base for your data flow map. For each affected person group you can have a different data flow within the same processing activity. This reduces the need to create multiple processing activities, when all relevant elements stay the same and only the data flow may be different between e.g. Newsletter subcribers and extisting customers. With automated reviews/re-certifications we make sure the ROPA is always up to date.
Privacy

Data Collection Points

Do you know at which interfaces personal data flows into your organization? This is for what data collection points are for. They document the interfaces, so you can make sure that your information requirements (Privacy Notices etc.) are met on each DCP. Updating a Privacy Notice? Create a task for each DCP owner to update the notice on their data collection points.
Privacy

Impact Assessments (DPIA, AI etc.)

Use Impact Assessments (for anything such as Privacy, Data Protection, AI etc.) in combination with questionnaires to collect information you need to evaluate more complex or higher risks for which you want to conduct a more detailed assessment. Link these assessments with your processes, assets, vendors etc.
Privacy

Inter Group Data Transfers

If you are a group of companies and you want to safeguard the data transfer within your group, then you will most likely need a Inter Group Data Transfer Agreement. Once you have this agreement, you need the companies to onboard to the agreement as well as offboard when necessary. This can be managed in the Priverion Platform. Additionally your IGDTA will reference the ROPA documentation in the Platform. This makes it easy to identify the data transfer between two companies in your group.
Privacy

Data Flow

Visualize the data flow in your Records of Processing activities. From affected persons to data collection points to assets to vendors. Track the data flow to make sure that you and your team understand exactly how the data flows, even in complex products or processes.
Privacy

Retention & Deletion Periods

Create or load the applicable deletion and retention periods for your company and country. You can create these manually or use our Filerskeepers Integration to access a database of over 150 countries with deletion and retention periods.

Security features

Information Security

Asset registers, vendor risk, and ISO 27001 controls, managed alongside your privacy program instead of in yet another disconnected tool.
Information Security

Asset Register

Synchronise your existing asset register or create a new register in our platform. Group your assets by asset groups and evaluate the risk of your assets on a asset group level. Get risk owner Signoff on your asset risks.
Information Security

Questionnaires

You are using questionnaires/assessments in a third party tool to evaluate risks or collect information. Great, keep doing that using the Priverion questionnaire feature. You can build or import any type of questionnaire to our platform. This allows you to use the process based data collection. BUT, you can additionally load the data out of an assessment and update any data in e.g. a ropa, asset, vendor etc. so you as a privacy professional can work with the efficient UI and do not have to click and scroll through questionnaire answers to get your work done. The beauty of both world in one platform.
Information Security

Risk Treatment Console

As a risk manager you want to have a compact overview over your risks in the assets, processes, vendors etc. The risk owner console allows the risk manager to see the risk of each element and drill down into the risk szenarios and mitigation measures (controls).
Information Security

Vendors

With our vendor module you can manage your vendors and 3rd parties using the same controls and risk szenarios. Keep the relevant information in one place, such as documents, processing agreements, security documentation, reviews etc. Get the same risk score for your vendors as you get for your organization or use another risk model. Your choice!

About Priverion's Privacy & GRC Platform

Key Takeaways: Priverion is a Swiss-hosted governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) platform offering 24 integrated modules (including ROPA, DPIA, vendor risk management, controls, and ISO 27001 gap analysis) priced per company rather than per user. Built specifically for corporate groups, it features Time Machine audit trails, Model Context Protocol (MCP) AI chat, group-wide sharing, and enterprise SSO at no extra cost.

What is a Record of Processing Activities (ROPA)?

A Record of Processing Activities (ROPA) is a mandatory documentation requirement under Article 30 of the GDPR and Article 12 of the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP). It requires data controllers and processors to maintain a written record of all processing activities carried out under their responsibility, including purposes, categories of data subjects, recipients, and international transfers.

What is a Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA)?

A Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA) is a risk assessment process required under Article 35 of the GDPR when processing is likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of individuals. The EDPB Guidelines 4/2017 provide detailed criteria for determining when a DPIA is required.

What is ISO 27001 and why does it matter for privacy compliance?

ISO/IEC 27001 is the international standard for information security management systems (ISMS), published by the International Organization for Standardization. According to the IAPP-EY 2023 Privacy Governance Report, 60% of organizations now align their privacy programs with ISO 27001 controls, making it the most widely adopted security framework alongside privacy regulations.

What is the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP)?

The Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP / nDSG), revised and effective since 1 September 2023, modernizes Switzerland's data protection framework to align more closely with the GDPR. The full text is available on Fedlex. Key changes include mandatory DPIAs, breach notification within 72 hours to the FDPIC, and a duty to maintain a ROPA.

How does Priverion handle group-wide compliance for corporate groups?

Priverion's Group Management module allows organizations to create multiple company entities within a single platform instance. Compliance artifacts, including ROPAs, assets, policies, and controls, can be shared across group companies and locally adjusted. According to Gartner's 2023 privacy technology forecast, by 2026 over 60% of large organizations will rely on centralized privacy management platforms to coordinate multi-entity compliance.

What is the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and how does Priverion use it?

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that enables AI agents and chat interfaces to interact with external data sources in a structured, permission-controlled manner. Priverion implements MCP so that privacy professionals can query their compliance data (ROPAs, risk registers, vendor assessments) using any MCP-enabled AI agent, with access governed by role-based access control (RBAC).

Why does per-company pricing matter for GRC platforms?

Per-user pricing in GRC software often discourages organizations from granting access to all relevant stakeholders, creating compliance blind spots. According to Forrester's Total Economic Impact research on privacy management software, organizations that provide broad platform access to business owners reduce compliance task completion times by up to 40%. Priverion's per-company pricing model removes this barrier, enabling unlimited user access without incremental cost.

What security certifications and hosting does Priverion provide?

Priverion is hosted exclusively in Switzerland, ensuring data residency within Swiss jurisdiction. The platform supports enterprise SSO via SAML, SCIM, Microsoft Entra, and Okta for all customers at no additional cost. According to ENISA's Cloud Security Guide, SSO integration and data residency controls are among the top technical measures organizations should evaluate when selecting cloud-based compliance tools.

Key Statistics on Privacy Compliance

  • According to the IAPP-EY 2023 Privacy Governance Report, the average privacy team budget grew to $3.7 million in 2023, a 12.5% increase year-over-year.
  • The same report found that 78% of organizations now have a dedicated Data Protection Officer (DPO) or equivalent role.
  • Gartner predicts that by 2026, 60% of large enterprises will use centralized privacy management technology, up from less than 25% in 2022.
  • According to the EDPB's 2023 Annual Report, European data protection authorities issued over €2.1 billion in GDPR fines cumulatively since 2018.
  • The Swiss FDPIC reported a significant increase in data breach notifications following the revised FADP's entry into force on 1 September 2023.
  • ENISA's 2023 Threat Landscape Report identifies supply chain attacks and ransomware as the top threats driving organizations to strengthen vendor risk management programs.
