Case Study: Allianz achieves award-winning, GDPR-ready privacy operations at scale with OneTrust

Allianz & OneTrust An Award-Winning Partnership

Allianz, a global financial services company serving 83 million customers across more than 70 countries, faced the challenge of implementing accountability and compliance ahead of the EU GDPR and scaling a complex privacy operations program enterprise‑wide. To meet this challenge Allianz partnered with OneTrust, using OneTrust privacy management software — including Data Mapping Automation, PIA & DPIA Automation, and Cookie Consent and Website Scanning — to centralize and operationalize its privacy efforts.

OneTrust mapped Allianz’s program into a central framework, automated key privacy processes, and supported internal DPO training and a city‑by‑city adoption roadshow to drive organization‑wide use. As a result, Allianz successfully scaled its privacy operations, achieved broad adoption across its global footprint, and was awarded the 2017 HPE‑IAPP Privacy Innovation Award in recognition of its innovative, OneTrust‑enabled privacy programme.
