For data protection officers

Handle every transfer outside the EU, with a defensible file.

The GDPR Transfer Adequacy module screens each third party's country, decides whether a transfer impact assessment is needed, and keeps your decision on record.

Your challenges

Chapter V, one transfer at a time.

Third parties in dozens of countries

Which ones need a transfer impact assessment, and which are already covered?

Spreadsheets and emails

They don't hold up in front of a regulator or a customer audit.

Chapter V is demanding

Standard Contractual Clauses, supplementary measures, a documented assessment of the destination country.

Adequacy lists change

Data Privacy Framework certifications and adequacy decisions evolve; yesterday's answer may be wrong today.

How Ethicaline helps

A clear verdict, then a guided assessment.

Adequacy screening

Each destination country is checked against the EU adequacy decisions.

Data Privacy Framework registry

EU–U.S. Data Privacy Framework certifications are kept up to date automatically.

Guided TIA

35 questions modelled on GDPR Chapter V and EDPB guidelines when no adequacy basis exists.

51 remediation actions

Standard Contractual Clauses, additional technical and organisational safeguards, or a decision not to transfer.

Your decision on record

The DPO confirms, corrects or rejects the machine's verdict, and the decision is traced.

Your own data under control

The platform stores its data in Zurich, Switzerland, a country with an EU adequacy decision.

The assessment path

From adequacy screening to your decision.

The three outcomes of the adequacy screening: adequate country, DPF-covered, TIA required
Ethicaline TPRM TIA workflow: country & organization screening, adequate basis check, 35-question TIA questionnaire, 51-action remediation, officer decision

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

When is a transfer impact assessment required?

When the destination country has no EU adequacy decision and the recipient is not covered by the Data Privacy Framework. In that case the platform never presumes the transfer is safe: it requires an assessment.

Does the DPO keep the final say?

Yes. Confirm, correct or reject: the human decision sits above the machine's verdict.

Is this module separate from the TPRM assessment?

Yes, it is a separate module. Choose it alone, or together with TPRM Risk Assessment in the Full and Enterprise plans.
