Intervalid

Intervalid is a German data protection management system, often referred to as Intervalid DSMS, designed to support the company-wide implementation of the EU General Data Protection Regulation. The software is aimed at organisations that need to demonstrate lawful, efficient handling of personal data across multiple departments, locations or group companies. GDPR compliance involves a substantial body of ongoing documentation and coordination: records of processing activities must be maintained, risks assessed, technical and organisational measures documented, and data subject requests and incidents handled within strict deadlines. When these tasks are managed in office documents and email, responsibilities become unclear and audits are difficult. Intervalid’s approach is to provide a structured, workflow-driven platform that distributes tasks to the right people, captures evidence centrally and gives data protection officers an up-to-date view of the organisation’s compliance status.

Key features include management of the record of processing activities with guided questionnaires, data protection impact assessments, documentation of technical and organisational measures and management of processor agreements with service providers. Workflows support the handling of data subject rights requests and data breach notifications, with deadlines and escalation to ensure timely responses. Role-based access allows department heads and process owners to contribute information directly, reducing the burden on the data protection team, while dashboards and reports provide an overview for management and auditors. Training and awareness modules help employees understand their obligations. The system supports multi-client and group structures, making it suitable for external data protection officers and consultancies that manage several organisations. Intervalid is available as a cloud service hosted in Germany, with on-premise options for organisations with specific requirements. Its target customers include mid-sized and large companies, public institutions, healthcare providers and external DPOs, primarily in German-speaking countries. Pricing starts from around EUR 169 with a free trial; there is no permanently free version.
