What is a 'Register'?
A register is a storage area made up of records and is considered the core of MetaPrivacy.
Each record includes information (fields) about a particular record. MetaPrivacy includes multiple registers that can be used independently, or they can be interconnected through Related Items and Relationships between records in other registers. (For example, many customers relate records in the Third Party Register to one or multiple records in the Business System Register.)
The example below shows how Microsoft Corporation (a Third Party) can have Microsoft Office (a Business System) as a related item, while also relating to records in other registers, such as Processing Activities.
Registers are prepopulated with a variety of fields for customers to use out of the box; however, both registers and their fields can be customised to suit your organisational needs.
For more information on customising registers, please refer to the article: What is 'Register Management'?
