Requests and approvals

Requests and approvals

The requests your compliance programme handles, from customers, data subjects and your own team, and the decisions that wait for a person.

Requests and approvals

Your compliance programme receives requests from outside and makes decisions inside. Each has its own place in Safeguard, a record of who did what, and a rule about who may decide.

WorkflowWho starts itWhere it is handled
Trust Center access requestsA customer, prospect, partner or auditor asks to see a restricted documentCompliance › Trust Center › Access requests
Privacy requestsA person asks about their personal data, and your team records itCompliance › Privacy requests
Integration requestsSomeone on your team asks Safeguard for a connector it does not listCompliance › Connectors › Request integration
ApprovalsA change that only counts once a person decides it: a policy, evidence, an access review, a test exclusion, a risk acceptance, a crosswalk mappingWhere the item lives, by a compliance reviewer

Assistants are bound by the same rules. Safeguard's AI assistant and MCP clients can prepare work, but they never approve, accept or sign off: those decisions are made by a person in the app. See Approvals.
