GDPR Article 30 (Record of Processing Activities) ​

Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) Article 30, organizations are required to maintain a Record of Processing Activities (RoPA).

For web telemetry, constructing a RoPA usually requires manually cataloging what data is sent from the frontend to analytics providers. This process is error-prone, quickly becomes outdated, and heavily impacts engineering resources.

Assumetr solves this by generating an active, cryptographically signed Data Inventory that satisfies the core requirements of Article 30.

Article 30 Requirements Addressed ​

When your Data Protection Officer (DPO) needs to construct or update the company's RoPA, the Assumetr Evidence Packet provides direct answers.

Categories of Personal Data ​

  1. The Context: Which events and properties are collected by the Assumetr snippet.
  2. The Evidence: The data_inventory section of the Evidence Packet provides a deduplicated schema of every observed property key and its inferred data type. This acts as the definitive list of data categories processed by the web application.

Categories of Recipients ​

  1. The Context: Where is the data sent after it is collected?
  2. The Evidence: The egress_log section documents every third-party destination (e.g., Mixpanel, Snowflake, Datadog) that received the raw telemetry, proving the data transfers.

Time Limits for Erasure ​

  1. The Context: What are the retention periods for different categories of personal data?
  2. The Evidence: The privacy_controls section documents the active retention window (e.g., 90 Days). The retention_proof section provides system logs confirming that data older than this window was securely destroyed.

General Security Measures ​

  1. The Context: What technical and organizational security measures are applied to the processing?
  2. The Evidence: The privacy_controls section documents if IP Addresses are hashed and if URL Query Parameters are stripped, demonstrating "Privacy by Design" and data minimization practices.

Continuous Compliance ​

Because the Evidence Packet is generated from actual Assumetr processing logs rather than static engineering documentation, it is always a current, mathematically verifiable snapshot of your organization's telemetry practices.
