The European #Data Protection Supervisor (#EDPS) has developed open source software #tools for the automation of #privacy and #dataprotection inspections of #websites.
The tool collects evidence of personal data processing, such as cookies, or requests to third parties. The collection parameters are configured ahead of the inspection and then collection is carried out automatically.
The collected evidence, structured in a human- and machine-readable format (YAML and HTML), allows website controllers, data protection officers and end users to understand better which information is transferred and stored during a visit of a website, i.e. the consecutive loading of a number of web pages without giving consent or logging in.
