Open search

Select Search anything… in the top bar, or press ⌘K on a Mac or Ctrl+K elsewhere. Before you type, it offers Jump to shortcuts to the five registers, Employees, Contractors, Company Formation, the Privacy Center, Notifications, the DPO marketplace and Settings, with a few examples under Try searching for.

Find a record

Type at least two characters. The results update as you type, grouped by kind, with up to five of each:

Kind	Found by
Privacy requests	The data subject's name or email address, or the request summary
RoPA	The processing activity's name
Sub-processors and DPAs	The company's legal or trading name
DPIAs	The assessment's title
Content reports	The reporter's name or email address
Incidents	The summary, or the incident's reference, such as `NIS2-0007`
AI systems	The name or version, or the reference, such as `AIS-0007`
Products	The name, model identifier or GTIN, or the reference, such as `PRD-0007`
Manufacturers and Brands	The name
Recalls	The product's name, or the recall's reference, such as `REC-0007`
Policies	The name, in any of the policy's languages, or its URL slug
Entities	The proposed company name, registration number or VAT number
Employees and Contractors	The name or role, and an employee's department
DPOs	A listed DPO's name or headline

A reference matches with or without its prefix and leading zeros, so prd7 and 7 both find product 7. A bare number finds the matching incident, AI system, product and recall at once.

Open a result

Select a result, or move with the arrow keys and press Enter. Most open the record in its register with its panel open; an entity opens Company Formation, and a DPO opens their profile in the marketplace. Press Esc to close the search.

If nothing matches, the box says so and suggests trying a name, an email address or a reference. Search covers your own workspace, plus the DPOs listed in the marketplace. For anything past the first five of a kind, use the register's own search. A DPO who works with you doesn't have this search box.
