Create a vendor record, link what it supplies, and get it ready for an assessment.
Vendors live in the Privacy, Risk & Compliance Suite.
Add the vendor
- Open the suite and go to Vendors.
- Add the vendor's name and website, and fill in the details you know.
- Assign an owner in your company. They are the person who answers for this vendor.
Link what the vendor supplies
Open Services or Assets to record what the vendor provides or hosts, and link it to the vendor. If the vendor processes personal data, add or link the Processing Activity too, so your data map shows the vendor.
Let vendors add themselves
If you onboard many vendors, use the Onboard Hub. Share its registration link, and vendors submit their own details. You review each submission before it becomes a record.
Next steps
- Send a vendor assessment
- Use Core IQ to research the vendor from public sources before you send anything.
