Week of May 5​

Rich text formatting in consent layout builder with translation support

🚀 Features Added​

  • IAB TCF support in Consent — you can now enable the IAB Europe Transparency & Consent Framework directly in DataGrail Consent. Align your consent experience with the industry-standard framework used across the ad-tech ecosystem, including standardized purposes, vendor disclosures, and consent signals — all without needing an external CMP.
  • Rich text formatting in consent layouts — the layout builder now includes a built-in rich text editor for body text and category descriptions. Bold, italic, underline, hyperlinks, and bulleted or numbered lists are all supported and render consistently across web, iOS, and Android. Formatting is preserved through translations, and all content is sanitized on save for security. Target rich text elements with CSS selectors for additional customization.
  • Sub-Processor legal role in Live Data Map — you can now designate systems as "Sub-Processor" in your data inventory, a legally distinct role from "Processor" under GDPR. This distinction is available across system profiles, assessment templates, and system data reports.
  • Assessment insights on System Profile — AI-powered risk and data suggestions from assessments are now surfaced directly on the System Profile page. A banner shows pending suggestions across all assessments for that system, and you can accept or dismiss them without navigating into the assessment.
  • System Data Report to RoPA auto-sync — changes saved on a System Data Report now automatically propagate to all linked Records of Processing Activities, keeping RoPA data in sync without manual updates.
  • Vera search processing activities — you can now ask Vera about processing activities in the Live Data Map. Search by name, filter for stale or incomplete RoPAs, and view associated systems, contacts, and status.

🛠 Changes Made​

  • Vera auto-pagination — Vera now automatically pages through large result sets when searching tickets, risks, inventory items, assessments, and other records, so you get complete answers without asking for more results.

🐛 Bugs Squashed​

  • Resolved an issue where multi-paragraph rich text in consent banners collapsed into a single line after saving.
  • Resolved an issue where inserting a link in the rich text editor placed it at the beginning of the text block instead of wrapping the selected text. You can now also click an existing link to edit it.
  • Resolved an issue where assessment due date edits were blocked even when the date hadn't changed.
  • Resolved an issue where assessments with no questions returned an error.
  • Resolved an issue preventing unverified requests from being closed if they were submitted via the app.
  • Resolved an issue where consent scan submissions failed for URLs that couldn't be resolved.
