## How Contracko keeps DPA and GDPR compliance work organized

Use contract types, custom fields, AI extraction, and reminders to make the details inside important agreements visible.

### [Standardize how your team tracks DPAs](https://contracko.com/features/contract-tracking)
Use Contracko’s built-in data processing agreement template to capture the GDPR details that matter, without setting up fields from scratch.

### [Automatically extract data processing agreement details](https://contracko.com/features/contract-data-extraction)
Let AI extract GDPR roles, data categories, subprocessors, transfer terms, audit rights, breach notices, and other DPA details for review.

### [Find DPA risks, obligations, and gaps faster](https://contracko.com/features/contract-data-extraction)
Let AI flag risks, liabilities, obligations, and missing or unclear privacy terms before your team follows up.

### [Stay ahead of DPA renewals, notices, and reviews](https://contracko.com/features/expiration-reminder)
Keep renewals, expirations, notice periods, review milestones, and other privacy contract events visible with automated reminders.

## Manage DPA agreement terms as structured data

### Extract data processing agreement terms

Review parties, GDPR roles, processing instructions, notice periods, audit rights, transfer language, security commitments, and subprocessor terms as fields.

### Track DPA reviews, renewals, and changes

Use owners, dates, reminders, and activity history to keep DPA review work visible as vendors renew or update terms.

### Standardize vendor DPA agreements

Apply one DPA contract type and field set across different vendor papers, while keeping the original signed document attached.

## Make DPA reviews easier for the teams involved

Contracko helps privacy, legal, and vendor owners find the agreement details they need and know what needs attention next.

## Frequently asked questions

What to expect, and what not to expect, from this solution.

- **Q:** What does DPA management mean in Contracko?
  **A:** It means keeping each data processing agreement as a structured contract record, with the signed file, important fields, owner, review dates, reminders, notes, and supporting documents in one place.

- **Q:** What happens after we upload a DPA?
  **A:** You can apply the DPA contract type, let AI prepare a first pass on the fields you track, review the results, and add owners or reminders for any follow-up.

- **Q:** Can we choose which DPA details to track?
  **A:** Yes. You can adapt the DPA contract type with fields for the details your team cares about, such as GDPR roles, processing instructions, data categories, breach notice, audit rights, transfer terms, TOMs, and subprocessors.

- **Q:** Can this help with ROPA or DPIA preparation?
  **A:** It can help with the agreement evidence those reviews often need: signed DPAs, processing roles, data categories, transfer clauses, subprocessor terms, owners, dates, and supporting files. Contracko is not a full ROPA or DPIA workflow tool.

- **Q:** Can Contracko help us keep track of subprocessors?
  **A:** Yes. You can track whether subprocessors are allowed, which notice period applies, whether objection rights exist, and where supporting subprocessor lists or notices are stored.

- **Q:** Do you support enterprise access controls for DPAs?
  **A:** Yes. On the Big Business plan you can require single sign-on through your identity provider, with self-serve OIDC for Microsoft Entra, Google Workspace, Okta and more (SAML on request). Role-based access limits who can view and edit DPAs, and changes are captured in the audit log on EU-hosted infrastructure. See our [security page](https://contracko.com/features/security).
