As organizations rely on third-party vendors, the risks associated with personal data extend beyond your direct control. A robust third-party risk management program is crucial to ensure that your partners handle data responsibly.
Captain Compliance guides you through the complexities of managing third-party risks. Our services include:
- Vendor Identification and Inventory: Create a comprehensive inventory of third parties who access or process personal data.
- Due Diligence: Conduct risk assessments to evaluate potential vendors’ privacy and security practices before data is shared.
- Detailed Contracts: Ensure robust contracts with clear data protection clauses, breach notification requirements, and termination provisions.
- Records of Processing Activities: Maintain reliable records of third-party processing activities for compliance transparency.
- Ongoing Monitoring and Audits: We help by building processes for regularly reviewing contracts and data protection agreements. We can be as involved as needed by your privacy team.
We don’t just assess your third-party risks; we help you develop a holistic third-party risk management strategy. This includes building vendor selection criteria, implementing ongoing monitoring processes, and developing a vendor incident response plan.
