Frequently asked questions

FAQs

What is a data protection management software?

A data protection management software like caralegal helps companies manage their organization-wide data protection. The software supports fulfilling GDPR requirements in areas such as documenting existing processes (processing activities, data protection impact assessments, vendor management, technical and organizational measures), as well as handling external requests from data subjects and authorities in a structured and intuitive way.

Who needs a data protection management software?

A data protection management software like caralegal is suitable for companies of any size looking to implement data protection in a structured and simple way with digital guidance. The user base isn’t limited to internal or external Data Protection Officers. To ensure the most efficient implementation of GDPR requirements, caralegal also integrates various departments into the software flow.

What should be considered before implementing data protection management software?

The starting point for implementing data protection management software is your existing documentation. To provide value from day one, caralegal doesn’t require lengthy or costly import projects. Our fully automated import process seamlessly transfers existing documents (such as Excel or Word) into the software in a structured way.

Does a data protection management software replace an external Data Protection Officer?

No. Companies that want to establish reliable and sustainable data protection management continuously integrate the expertise of internal or external Data Protection Officers. Software like caralegal saves your Data Protection Officer significant time in creating and maintaining data protection documentation while making their work easier through smart assistance features.

What should I consider when choosing data protection management software?

Data protection is not a standardized product, but an ongoing process supported and simplified by software like caralegal.
However, the following points should be part of your decision criteria:


1. The range of features is crucial and must align with your needs.

2. Legal expertise must have been integrated into the software’s development. Pay close attention to references, as experience with data protection authorities plays a key role in GDPR compliance.

3. Ease of use and automation are essential. Test this with a personal demo or trial account to ensure that you still enjoy using the software six months down the road.

Where is the software hosted?

The software, along with all your data, is hosted in Germany (Frankfurt/M.) in Deutsche Telekom data centers certified under ISO/IEC 27001.

Who is behind caralegal?

caralegal GmbH is the developer and operator of the data protection software. The company is a spin-off from the renowned data protection consultancy ISiCO Datenschutz GmbH and the IT law firm SCHÜRMANN, ROSENTHAL, DREYER Partnerschaft von Rechtsanwälten mbB.
