See Your Metrics Dashboard: Book a DemoYou've built the program. But when leadership asks "how compliant are we?", you shouldn't need a spreadsheet marathon. Priverion transforms compliance activities into quantified, trackable GDPR metrics that update automatically across every subsidiary.
"Priverion replaced our spreadsheet-based ROPA tracking across 12 entities. We went from quarterly manual recertification marathons to 100% automated recertification. Our team now spends their time on strategic privacy work, not data entry."
A Swiss insurer, based on customer survey, Q1 2025
"Within six months, we cut compliance admin time by 60% and our board finally gets a single-page compliance summary instead of a 40-slide deck. The pricing model meant we could roll it out to all subsidiaries without budget surprises."
Aircraft manufacturer, based on customer interview, Q4 2024
The GDPR Compliance Metrics Your Program Should Be Tracking, Automated
Each metric maps directly to a GDPR accountability obligation under Articles 5(2), 24, 30, 35, and 44–49. Priverion doesn't just help you do compliance work; it helps you prove you're doing it, continuously, across every entity.

Ahead of schedule on ISO 27001
A medical technology company compressed its ISO 27001 certification timeline by three months using Priverion's audit-ready evidence packages and automated documentation generation.
Built for mid-market reality, not enterprise bloat
OneTrust was built for Fortune 500 procurement cycles. If you manage 5, 15, or 50 subsidiaries and need compliance that actually works across all of them, without a six-figure contract and a 9-month implementation, here's what the comparison actually looks like.
The OneTrust experience
Powerful, if you can afford the complexity
- Per-module, per-user pricing Costs escalate as you add subsidiaries, users, or modules. Budget surprises are the norm, not the exception.
- US-headquartered, global infrastructure Subject to US CLOUD Act and FISA 702. In a post-Schrems II landscape, that's a compliance risk in itself.
- Implementation measured in months Enterprise onboarding often requires dedicated consultants and 6+ month timelines before you see value.
- 200+ integrations: breadth over depth Impressive connector count, but many are shallow and create maintenance overhead for privacy teams.
- Feature-rich to the point of complexity Covers ESG, ethics hotlines, cookie consent, and more, whether you need them or not. Most mid-market teams use a fraction of what they pay for.
The Priverion experience
Everything you need, nothing you don't
- Predictable pricing by company count Based on number of entities and organizational size, not per-user or per-module. No expansion traps. Your CFO will appreciate the predictability.
- Swiss-built, Swiss-hosted, guaranteed All data processing within Swiss infrastructure. European data residency isn't a marketing checkbox; it's a legal safeguard for cross-border transfers.
- Operational in weeks, not months Aircraft manufacturer achieved 60% reduction in compliance admin time within their first 6 months, including onboarding. Aircraft manufacturer case study, first 6 months post-deployment
- Deep integrations where they matter Meaningful connections with HR, procurement, and IT asset management systems, the workflows that actually drive privacy compliance across entities.
- Purpose-built for group-wide privacy We don't cover ESG, ethics hotlines, or cookie consent. We go deep on what matters: ROPA, DPIA/TIA, vendor assessments, DSR handling, incident management, and cross-entity data mapping, all in one platform.
