1. A computer-implemented data processing method of populating a data inventory with one or more data inventory attribute values, the method comprising:

  • generating, by one or more processors, the data inventory for one or more data assets used in the collection or storage of personal data;

    storing, by the one or more processors, the data inventory in computer memory;

    modifying, by the one or more processors, the data inventory to include one or more data fields that each define a respective data inventory attribute of a plurality of data inventory attributes;

    determining, by the one or more processors, which of the one or more data fields of the data inventory are unpopulated data fields;

    determining, by the one or more processors, a respective data inventory attribute value for one or more of the unpopulated data fields, wherein determining the respective data inventory attribute value for the one or more of the unpopulated data fields comprises;

    requesting, by the one or more processors via an application programming interface to an application, data associated with the respective data inventory attribute value for the one or more of the unpopulated data fields,receiving, by the one or more processors from the application, the data associated with the respective data inventory attribute value for the one or more of the unpopulated data fields, anddetermining, by the one or more processors based at least in part on the data associated with the respective data inventory attribute value for the one or more of the unpopulated data fields, the respective data inventory attribute value for the one or more of the unpopulated data fields;

    in response to determining the respective data inventory attribute value for the one or more of the unpopulated data fields, modifying each of the one or more unpopulated data fields to include the respective data inventory attribute value; and

    storing the modified data inventory in the computer memory.
