The premise
AI can review a vendor DPA against the company's actual data flows, surfacing subprocessor lists, transfer mechanisms, and notification windows that conflict with internal policy.
What AI does well here
- Map vendor's listed subprocessors against approved-vendor lists and surface unknowns.
- Compare transfer mechanisms (SCCs, DPF, BCRs) against the company's policy table.
What AI cannot do
- Replace privacy counsel on jurisdiction-specific regulator interpretations.
- Decide which residual risks the company is willing to accept commercially.
