Overview

OneTrust is a privacy, security and data governance automation platform that helps organizations manage compliance obligations across global regulations such as GDPR and CCPA. The platform consolidates data mapping, data subject request (DSR) fulfillment, consent and preference management, privacy impact assessments, and regulatory intelligence into a single hub, and reports that over half of the Fortune 500 use it.

Core modules include Data and Activity Mapping (a continuously updated inventory of processing activities, systems and vendors that feeds downstream workflows), DSR Automation (identity verification, data discovery, deletion and secure response delivery for access and deletion requests), Consent and Preferences (cookie and universal consent capture across web, mobile and connected platforms), Privacy Notices, and AI-assisted risk assessments and incident management. A DataGuidance regulatory research layer tracks changes across 300+ jurisdictions and surfaces them through OneTrust Copilot.

OneTrust connects to identity and access management systems, cloud providers and CMDBs for automated data-asset discovery, and ships native integrations with business platforms including Workday (HR and finance data mapping and DSAR fulfillment), Salesforce (consent capture in the CRM), Snowflake (a native Consent Management app plus data-use governance and DSR automation inside the warehouse), Microsoft (Purview, Sentinel and AI Foundry for DSPM and AI governance) and Adobe (consent signals synced into Real-Time CDP for compliant personalization). The vendor lists 500+ pre-built integrations across its marketplace and offers a public developer portal with APIs and SDKs.

OneTrust starts around $10,000 a year and rises steeply with module scope. It is a privacy and data-governance suite rather than a security-certification tool, spanning consent management, data mapping, DSAR automation, third-party risk and increasingly AI governance — so a like-for-like comparison against Vanta or Drata is misleading, because they solve a different problem. Pricing is driven by which modules you activate and by data-subject volume, not by seats. Get an independent shortlist with pricing guidance below.
