This article describes the vendor monitoring solution in Osano.
Osano's vendor monitoring 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.
Following Vendors In Osano
- Log in to my.osano.com as an Admin or Monitoring Manager.
- Navigate to "Vendors."
- Click the green "+" in the bottom right-hand corner.
- Search for the vendor you want to follow by name or website domain.
- Note: If the vendor doesn't appear at first, try a different spelling. Ex. Instead of Mail Chimp, try Mailchimp to see if the product appears.
- If you are unable to find the vendor you are looking for, feel free to submit a support ticket requesting said vendor.
- Select the appropriate vendor.
- You will see a preview of that vendor’s data.
- If the vendor is correct, select “Follow.”
Once you have followed a vendor, you will be able to access the associated information.
