GDPR automation
Automating data subject rights requests access, erasure, portability, and rectification. When a subject requests deletion, an automation can search all connected systems and trigger deletion workflows across CRM, email, and billing platforms simultaneously.

Expert insight
GDPR-related automation (handling a data-subject access or deletion request) needs to actually reach every system holding that person's data, not just the primary CRM, a "right to be forgotten" workflow that deletes a contact from the CRM but leaves them in an email tool's list, an analytics platform, and a support ticket system hasn't actually satisfied the request.
How PURIST uses this
This concept is built into every automation we deploy.
When PURIST builds your automation, GDPR automation is not an optional consideration it is part of the production standard. Our workflows are tested against edge cases, monitored 24/7, and built to handle what happens when things don't go as expected.
Every client workflow we deploy in the Security category is designed with this principle in mind from day one not added as an afterthought.
Complexity level
Requires some familiarity with automation concepts.
