Management systems for personal identifying data, and methods relating thereto

Abstract:

Systems and methods are provided for managing personal identifying information (PII). An exemplary method includes receiving, from a requestor, a request related to PII for an individual. In connection therewith, a computing device determines whether a restriction on the PII or the individual applies to the request, and then broadcasts the request, subject to the determined restriction, to a service provider of a service associated with the individual where the service provider is a controller of PII of the individual. The computing device also compiles a reply to the request, based on a response from the service provider, where the reply includes the PII, and transmits the reply to the requestor. The computing device then logs multiple interactions related to the request in an audit data structure, thereby permitting compliance with PII controls to be demonstrated.
