What is Privacy Code Scanning?

Privacy code scanning is the process of continuously scanning the code that runs your websites, mobile apps, and backend software to provide real-time visibility into how personal data is collected, used, shared, and stored. This privacy code analysis gives privacy and engineering teams one record built from the code, not from questionnaires, and helps strengthen privacy governance.

Dynamic Data Maps

Build complete data maps across products

Identify and classify all personal data elements processed by your websites, mobile apps, and backend software products. Discover all collections points, processing activities, storage destinations, and third parties. Track flow of each data element across your tech stack in real-time.

Auto-Risk Discovery

Identify risks as data flows change

Continuously audit personal data flows for compliance with your privacy policies. Run source code privacy scanning for your entire codebase to detect new data flows, sensitive data leaks, and other risks during and after development. Prevent privacy risks before they go live.

agentic Assessments

Autogenerate assessments with real-time data

Use agents to populate RoPAs, PIAs, and DPIAs with how personal data is collected, used, shared, and stored. Minimize input needed from stakeholders. Automatically update assessments after each code scan instead of relying on outdated manual assessments.
