Case Study: Farmers Edge achieves a robust, GDPR-aligned global privacy program with OneTrust

Farmers Edge Cultivates Robust Privacy Program with OneTrust

Farmers Edge, a global digital agriculture provider managing data from 90,000 IoT devices, needed to protect massive volumes of sensitive farm data and retain customer trust across multiple jurisdictions (GDPR, LGPD, PIPEDA, Australian Privacy Act). To centralize and scale privacy efforts, Farmers Edge selected OneTrust and its modules—DataGuidance, Data Mapping, and Assessment Automation—to build a robust, GDPR‑aligned privacy program rather than treating compliance as a checklist.

OneTrust implemented Assessment Automation to automate Privacy Impact Assessments, Data Mapping to document data flows and produce records of processing activities, and DataGuidance to deliver daily regulatory research and updates. The result was faster, more consistent assessments, streamlined collaboration between privacy and business teams, readily available RoPA and compliance reporting, and improved ability to plan for future legislation—helping Farmers Edge maintain customer trust and reduce regulatory risk.
