hlola record of processing activities: activities with purpose, data subjects, approval status and last update, and the step-by-step form for adding one

Why ROPA matters

Turn data processing into clarity and control.

A record of processing is the cornerstone of privacy compliance. hlola helps you keep it complete, current and evidenced.

  • Centralised visibility

    One source of truth for every processing activity across your entities and workspaces.

  • Stay compliant

    Each purpose carries its own lawful basis; consent and legitimate interests raise the work they need.

  • Enable collaboration

    Owners draft, reviewers approve or request changes, and every decision is recorded.

  • Ready for inspection

    Export the record as CSV or in the Inspection Pack, as it stood on any date.

How it works

From capture to compliance.

A structured process to build and maintain your ROPA.

  1. 01

    Capture

    A six-step wizard records purposes, bases, data, flows and risk answers, with drafts saved as you go.

  2. 02

    Review

    Submit for approval; reviewers approve, request changes or reject, with a note.

  3. 03

    Close the work

    Consent, legitimate interest and DPIA tasks raised by the entry are tracked to evidence.

  4. 04

    Report

    Show the regulator the complete record, with what changed and who approved it.

Detailed view

Know why an entry isn't complete.

Each record shows its status, the work it raised and exactly what's still outstanding, never a vague percentage.
  • Purposes and lawful bases side by side
  • Risk screening that raises DPIAs when needed
  • A reviewer's note on every decision
