Case Study: WL Gore and Associates streamlines global data privacy compliance with OneTrust

How WL Gore and Associates streamlined compliance and data privacy

WL Gore and Associates, a global leader in innovation known for products like medical devices and Gore-Tex fabrics, needed a more reliable way to manage its growing data privacy and compliance obligations across multiple regions. After relying on spreadsheets and other disconnected tools, the company looked for a trusted platform to help centralize and streamline its privacy program.

Using OneTrust since 2017, WL Gore and Associates implemented multiple OneTrust modules, including data mapping, assessments, vendor risk management, third-party due diligence, and DataGuidance for regulatory intelligence. With OneTrust, Gore reduced the number of applications needed, centralized compliance across business areas, and gained confidence navigating privacy laws in regions such as Japan, Europe, and the US, improving efficiency and staying ahead of regulatory change.
