OneTrust, LLC

OneTrust is a technology company that provides a comprehensive software platform focused on privacy, security, and data governance for other businesses. Its main service is helping organizations manage their data collection and comply with global privacy regulations such as GDPR and CCPA. The platform offers tools for managing user consent and preferences, automating data subject rights requests, and assessing third-party vendor risks, serving over 14,000 customers globally. While OneTrust provides the infrastructure to help its clients protect personal information, the platform is used to manage vast quantities of sensitive consumer data. A security failure or misuse of the platform by one of its many clients could potentially expose significant amounts of personal data, creating risks of identity theft, fraud, and other malicious activities. To protect their information, individuals should be cautious about the data they share with companies and review privacy policies to understand how their data is managed. People can also exercise their data protection rights by submitting access or deletion requests directly to the businesses that collect their information.
