    About this task

    When a privacy screening assessment is sent to the entity owners, their responses determine the creation of processing activity. You can also modify the default configurations on the privacy screening assessment to create processing activities automatically.

    You can also create a new processing activity creation condition for your own privacy screening assessments.

    After you create the configurations, you can validate if the responses create the processing activities according to the defined conditions.
