Data protection and privacy
Privacy and data protection integrated by design and by default, with continuous, auditable, and multi-jurisdictional compliance. Anjana Data centralises processing records, DPIA/EIPD, evidence, and alerts, linking them to the Catalogue and lineage for proactive, preventive, and sustainable compliance.
Regulatory context
and organisational challenge
The rise of frameworks such as GDPR, Data Protection Act, Data Governance Act and LATAM regulations (e.g., General Data Protection Regulation Brazil, Act 19,628 Chile, LPDP Argentina) requires comprehensive traceability of treatments, impact assessments and risk mitigation for sensitive information. Many organisations still manage this with spreadsheets and processes that are difficult to audit and disconnected from actual assets. A layer of governance is required to link privacy + protection with data processing and coordinate DPO, Legal, Risk and Business.
Key capabilities
Treatment registration and lifecycle
Governed inventory of processing activities, purposes, legal bases, categories, transfers, and timeframes, with versioning, statuses, and evidence associated with assets in the Catalogue.
DPIA/EIPD and risk assessment
Extensible templates for impact assessments, controls, and mitigation plans; role-based approval workflows and automatic evidence generation.
Alerts, notifications, and breach management
Incident alert and traceability mechanisms with support for investigation, remediation, and subsequent auditing.
Enforcement of security and privacy policies
Bidirectional integration to inject tags/metadata that trigger policies on data platforms; IAM/SSO delegation and active permission management on storage/consumption technologies.
Minimisation and controlled exposure
Obfuscated and restricted preview of governed assets; publication as information products with DSA/contracts regulating conditions of use and automated access.
Traceability and hybrid lineage (technical ↔ business)
End-to-end visibility of sources, transformations, and consumption to justify decisions and demonstrate compliance during audits.
E2E operationalisation of compliance
01
Discovery & classification
Entries in the Catalogue/Glossary with attributes of sensitivity, purpose, and legal basis.
02
Treatment record
Linkage to assets, responsible parties, contracts, and transfers; statuses and versioning.
03
DPIA
Identification of risks, controls, approvals, and auditable evidence.
04
Regulated publication
DSAs/Contracts, terms of use and trolley for access requests; orchestration of permissions.
05
Policy implementation
Label injection and IAM delegation for technical enforcement in data systems.
06
Monitoring & auditing
Alerts, breach management, history, and continuous compliance reporting.
