Osano's vendor management solution allows you to keep track of the privacy practices for all relevant vendors so you can tell who's doing privacy well and who's falling short.
You're trusting vendors with your customers' data, so it's essential you protect yourself and decide whether they deserve that trust.
Osano Vendor Inventory
The Osano vendor inventory gives you a comprehensive view of all the vendors your company interacts with. In the list you will find vendors you have selected to manage and ones discovered in other parts of the platform, for example, vendors associated with cookies in Consent Manager or with Data Stores.
The vendor inventory provides an overview of essential information about each vendor including its privacy score. To go further and see details such as the vendor’s privacy documents or associated litigation, you can opt to manage the vendor.
