Workflow

Overview

CaseMark's GDPR DPA skill drafts fully structured, Article 28-compliant Data Processing Addenda complete with schedules, sub-processor controls, breach notification terms, and international transfer provisions. Simply upload your service agreement and processing details, and receive an execution-ready DPA with all mandatory clauses addressed and gaps clearly flagged.

Drafting GDPR-compliant Data Processing Addenda is a painstaking process requiring meticulous attention to Article 28 requirements, international transfer mechanisms, sub-processor governance, and security provisions. Legal teams spend hours cross-referencing regulatory requirements, populating schedules, and ensuring no mandatory clause is overlooked—often across dozens of vendor relationships simultaneously.

CaseMark automates the entire DPA drafting workflow by analyzing your service agreement, party details, and data inventory to produce a comprehensive, Article 28-compliant addendum with fully populated schedules. The AI systematically covers every mandatory clause, integrates appropriate transfer mechanisms, and flags any missing information—transforming a multi-day drafting exercise into a streamlined, consistent process.

Questions

Does this DPA cover all Article 28(3) mandatory requirements?

Yes. CaseMark systematically addresses every mandatory clause under GDPR Article 28(3), including documented instructions, confidentiality, security measures, sub-processor controls, data subject assistance, breach notification, audit rights, and deletion obligations. Any gaps in your inputs are clearly flagged as [REQUIRED].

Can it handle international data transfers and Standard Contractual Clauses?

Absolutely. CaseMark generates international transfer provisions covering Article 46 SCCs, Article 47 BCRs, and Article 49 derogations based on your transfer map. The output integrates the appropriate transfer mechanism into the DPA structure.

How does CaseMark handle sub-processor governance?

CaseMark drafts sub-processor clauses aligned with Articles 28(2) and 28(4), including your choice of general or specific authorization models, objection windows, flow-down obligations, and a populated sub-processor schedule.

Can I use this for updating an existing DPA?

Yes. Upload your existing DPA alongside updated party details or processing descriptions, and CaseMark will generate a revised addendum reflecting your current data processing activities, transfer mechanisms, and sub-processor arrangements.

What if I don't have all the required information yet?

CaseMark flags any missing information with [REQUIRED] placeholders throughout the document and schedules, so you can circulate the draft internally to collect outstanding details without losing the overall structure.

Is the output ready for execution or does it need legal review?

CaseMark produces a professionally structured, execution-ready DPA. However, we always recommend legal counsel review the final document to ensure it reflects your organization's specific risk posture, regulatory obligations, and commercial terms.
