### Streamline GDPR Compliance with a Vendor Data Processing Agreement

When you're working with vendors who process personal data on your behalf, GDPR compliance isn't optional—it's essential. This **GDPR Vendor Data Processing Agreement template** helps you establish clear contractual terms that meet Article 28 requirements, covering everything from security measures to sub-processor disclosure and breach notification procedures.

#### Built for EU compliance without the legal complexity

Whether you're a data controller onboarding new processors, a privacy officer managing vendor relationships, or a compliance team documenting your data processing activities, this template guides both parties through the critical elements of a compliant DPA. The form captures vendor details, processing scope, security commitments, sub-processor information, and breach notification protocols in one structured flow.

#### How Paperform makes GDPR documentation effortless

With Paperform's document-style editor, you can customise this template to match your organisation's specific requirements and brand guidelines. Add conditional logic to show different security questions based on data sensitivity levels, embed relevant GDPR articles for reference, or include your company's security standards checklist inline.

Once submitted, use **Stepper** to automate your compliance workflows: route completed DPAs for legal review, create records in your vendor management system, send acknowledgment emails to both parties, and schedule annual review reminders—all triggered automatically from a single form submission.

For agreements requiring signatures from both the data controller and processor, integrate **Papersign** to turn completed DPAs into legally binding contracts with audit trails, keeping everything connected to your original compliance documentation.

#### Enterprise-grade security for sensitive compliance data

Paperform is **SOC 2 Type II certified and GDPR compliant**, with data residency controls, encryption at rest and in transit, and role-based access controls. Your vendor processing agreements and compliance records are protected with the same security standards you're documenting in the form itself.

Whether you're managing five vendors or five hundred, this template helps you maintain consistent GDPR compliance standards across all your data processing relationships—no legal degree required.
