Data privacy context management system

A system comprising:

• a memory that stores instructions;
• and
• one or more processors configured by the instructions to perform operations comprising:
• receiving an event from an application;
• analyzing the event to determine that a new system process has been created;
• generating a privacy context for the new system process, in real time from receiving the event from the application, by performing operations comprising:
• analyzing application metadata associated with the new system process to determine a process definition for the new system process;
• extracting process flow details for the process definition;
• analyzing the extracted process flow details to determine entities associated with the new system process and data categories associated with the new system process;
• and
• generating the privacy context based on the entities associated with the new system process and the data categories associated with the new system process, the privacy context linking a data controller, one or more data categories and a role;
• and
• storing the privacy context for the new system process.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions stored thereon that are executable by at least one processor to cause a computing device to perform operations comprising:

• receiving an event from an application;
• analyzing the event to determine that a new system process has been created;
• generating a privacy context for the new system process, in real time from receiving the event from the application, by performing operations comprising:
• analyzing application metadata associated with the new system process to determine a process definition for the new system process;
• extracting process flow details for the process definition;
• associated with the new system process and data categories associated with the new system process;
• and
• generating the privacy context based on the entities associated with the new system process and the data categories associated with the new system process, the privacy context linking a data controller, one or more data categories and a role;
• and
• storing the privacy context for the new system process.
