See the privacy risk your security stack may be missing.
Security protects data from attackers; privacy protects you from what your own tools are already doing. Pixels, session-replay tools, chatbots, analytics scripts, embedded video, advertising technologies and other third parties execute inside the visitor’s browser — often outside traditional security monitoring. Captain Compliance continuously identifies these technologies, applies approved consent controls, detects changes, maintains technical records and helps security, privacy and legal teams respond when website data collection creates regulatory or litigation exposure. Privacy is the one breach that happens while your security is working perfectly — the data leaves through the front door, with an invoice.
The website can change without the security stack changing.
Identify supported JavaScript, tags, tracking services, third-party domains and technologies operating across websites. These are not automatically malicious or insecure — the risk is unreviewed data collection outside the approved privacy model.
Review supported network requests, data fields, payload contents, cookies, local storage and related website behavior within the authorized and technically accessible scope of the engagement.
Detect when campaigns, plugins, agencies, tag managers or releases introduce technologies that differ from the approved configuration.
Maintain findings, consent records, preference records, configuration information, audit logs, reports and technical documentation.
Identify supported third-party technologies and data-collection behavior across digital properties, rather than relying on a point-in-time review.
Connect approved consent and preference requirements with actual website behavior.
Detect relevant technology changes and configuration drift as marketing, agencies and business units deploy.
Apply enterprise access, hosting, retention, residency and organizational controls.
Maintain records and technical findings for reviews, claims and investigations.
Coordinate security, privacy, legal, engineering, insurance and outside counsel when risk arises. These are not guaranteed security or legal outcomes.
Access, deployment and records designed for security review.
You've hardened every endpoint against exfiltration, but your marketing stack exfiltrates customer data to 40 third parties on every page load — with per-violation statutory damages attached. Technology enters the website through marketing, ecommerce, content, analytics, agencies and local business units — often without the organization’s ordinary security or privacy review. “Shadow tracking” does not mean every detected technology is malicious, unauthorized or legally prohibited; it means tracking or data-collection technology that may not be visible to the appropriate security, privacy or governance teams. Once identified, Captain Compliance connects discovery to technical controls: consent management, automatic blocking, accept, reject and granular choices, regional and language configurations, Global Privacy Control detection, Google Tag Manager, Consent Mode v2, browser-side and server-side controls, full preference management, consent and preference records, dynamic privacy policies and cookie transparency pages, the DSAR Portal, APIs, webhooks and custom enterprise integrations. The appropriate configuration depends on the organization’s technologies, practices, jurisdictions, legal analysis and risk decisions — Captain Compliance implements approved requirements but does not replace legal counsel.
SSO and SAML
Connect access with the organization’s approved identity environment.
SCIM Provisioning
Support centralized provisioning and deprovisioning of authorized users.
Role-Based Access
Assign appropriate permissions across teams, properties, brands, regions and business units.
Detailed Audit Logs
Maintain records of relevant access, configurations, changes and platform activity.
Environment Separation
Support development, staging and production environments so privacy changes follow a controlled release process.
Flexible Hosting
Support standard cloud, private cloud, dedicated cloud and on-premises deployment.
Data Residency
Address applicable regional hosting and data-residency requirements during solution design.
Custom Retention
Establish appropriate retention requirements based on organizational needs and applicable obligations.
Organizational Structure
Support multiple business units and parent-and-child account structures.
APIs and Webhooks
Connect supported privacy-risk and compliance workflows with enterprise systems. Findings and events can reach the dashboard, email, webhooks, REST APIs, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Jira, SIEM platforms and custom integrations — so teams do not have to watch another isolated dashboard.
Give security, privacy and counsel access to the same technical facts.
Treat consent like access control: every tracker firing pre-consent is an unauthorized data flow, except this one comes with a $5,000-per-violation price tag and a plaintiff running DevTools instead of a pen test. CIPA, ECPA, VPPA, CCPA, GDPR and other privacy matters may require cooperation among security, privacy, legal, marketing, engineering, insurance and outside counsel. When a demand or inquiry arrives, the organization needs to determine which technology was installed, which team or vendor added it, which domains received requests, what the supported payload review shows, whether the technology operated before or after consent, whether GPC or another preference was received, whether browser-side and server-side systems behaved consistently, which logs and records remain available, when the configuration changed, and what remediation occurred. Captain Compliance can assist with expedited technical audits, technology inventories, supported request and payload review, consent and preference records, configuration information, audit logs, timestamped testing, browser-side and server-side findings, remediation, technical reports, declarations and technical testimony, discovery assistance, and coordination with counsel and insurers. An honest limitation. A current technical audit cannot automatically reconstruct unavailable historical website behavior. Historical conclusions depend on the logs, source records, tag-manager versions, server-side configurations, archived pages, screenshots, vendor records and other evidence that remain available. Captain Compliance can document and monitor supported behavior prospectively after engagement; it cannot retroactively preserve evidence that no longer exists. Compliance Shield. Qualifying clients may receive access to our written litigation guarantee, connecting approved implementation, configuration, monitoring, records, cooperation and litigation-response support under the applicable program terms — a structured response resource when a qualifying privacy claim arises. It is not insurance and does not guarantee that no demand, claim, lawsuit, investigation, fine or penalty will occur. Eligibility, requirements, exclusions, protection and available remedies are governed exclusively by the applicable written terms.
Book a Security and Privacy Audit- 1 — Discover — Identify supported cookies, pixels, scripts, trackers, domains, network requests, storage, session replay, chat, forms, embedded video, tag-manager technologies, CMS additions and connected server-side activity
- 2 — Classify — Determine the technology’s purpose, responsible owner, vendor, intended data use, applicable consent category and approved business requirement
- 3 — Control — Apply approved consent, auto-blocking, GPC, preference, regional, browser-side and server-side configurations
- 4 — Document — Maintain inventories, findings, configurations, consent records, preferences, audit logs, reports and remediation information
- 5 — Monitor — Continuously scan supported environments for new technologies, changed behavior, unexpected requests and configuration drift
- 6 — Respond — Send findings into security workflows and coordinate with privacy, legal, engineering, marketing, insurers and counsel when risk appears
- Behind authentication — Some privacy-relevant technologies appear only after sign-in, account creation, checkout, a support portal or content playback. Supported authenticated pages can be evaluated when the client provides authorization, scoped credentials, test accounts and workflows under an agreed engagement plan, minimising sensitive production data where possible. Captain Compliance does not circumvent authentication or access controls
A vendor questionnaire cannot show what the website is doing today.
- Vendor representations describe intended behavior
- Certifications confirm a programme, not today’s tags
- Approved inventories drift from production reality
- A new agency script bypasses the review process entirely
- Nobody knows which third-party domains received requests
- Payload contents are assumed rather than observed
- Evidence is assembled reactively after a demand arrives
- An annual assessment misses last week’s campaign
- Third-party website technologies identified continuously
- Technologies associated with vendors and purposes
- Supported requests and payload information reviewed
- Actual technologies compared with approved inventories
- New or changed services detected as they appear
- Consent and preference controls applied to what is found
- Technical records maintained for review and claims
- Findings escalated for vendor, legal, privacy or security review

Give security a continuous view of website privacy risk.
A cyber threat actor breaks into your network, but a privacy regulator punishes you for breaking your legal duty to protect what was inside. Discover third-party technologies, enforce approved privacy controls, route findings into security workflows, maintain evidence and coordinate the response when website behavior creates legal or regulatory exposure. Captain Compliance provides privacy technology, implementation, monitoring, documentation and technical support. It is not a law firm, cybersecurity incident-response provider, vulnerability scanner or replacement for an organization’s security program. Technical findings depend on the authorized scope, access, systems, configurations and visibility available during review. Organizations should consult qualified legal and security professionals regarding their particular risks and obligations.
