Episode 8 — Build privacy documentation that survives audits, incidents, and organizational change (Domain 1A-4 Privacy Documentation)
This episode explains the privacy documentation CDPSE expects you to recognize, evaluate, and improve, emphasizing durability under audit scrutiny and during real incidents. You’ll cover the purpose and structure of artifacts like data inventories, dataflow documentation, PIAs, policies and standards, DPIA-style outputs, records of processing activities, retention schedules, and incident records, with a focus on what makes them actionable rather than performative. We’ll walk through a scenario where documentation breaks down after a reorg, a cloud migration, or a vendor swap, and show how good documentation includes ownership, update triggers, and evidence links that stay current. You’ll also learn how to spot “paper compliance” in exam questions and choose answers that strengthen traceability, accountability, and control verification.
