GDPR and AI Act software release

The new Adequacy 6.3.1 version, released on August 5, 2026, marks another milestone in our mission: making compliance smoother, smarter, and more enjoyable to manage. This update brings a series of targeted improvements designed to simplify your processes, strengthen your risk management, and provide a more intuitive experience across key AI and GDPR governance modules.

AI Governance: alerts, statuses, and use case tracking

AI governance continues to evolve, providing you with a clear and actionable view of your use cases.

A visual alert so you never miss a deadline

An alert bell now appears when an assessment's expiration date is approaching or has passed:

  • Orange: deadline approaching
  • Red: deadline passed

A simple, powerful signal to help you stay in control.

"Planned" and "Archived" statuses for managing your AI portfolio

Use cases now include "Planned" and "Archived" statuses, along with a dedicated filter. You can see at a glance what is under consideration, in progress, or closed.

A comment column for added context

A new "comment" column lets you add details to your benefit and risk lists. Because nuance matters.

AI systems: more contextualized risk assessment

The risk assessment assistant is now more relevant:

  • Annex III exemptions are now only displayed when they are actually applicable
  • "Comment" fields now allow you to explain your choices regarding risks, roles, or models

A clearer, better-documented, and more professional assessment.

Processing register: a directly accessible DPIA indicator

A shield now appears on the register home page to indicate the number of DPIAs associated with each processing activity. One click, and you have direct access to the list. Simpler, faster, more logical navigation.

DPIA: EDPB edition, automatic table of contents, and enhanced compliance

An official edition based on the EDPB template

Following the publication of the "EDPB Template for DPIA," Adequacy now offers a compliant, ready-to-use edition.

An automatic table of contents for more readable DPIAs

DPIAs are often dense. We have now added a structured table of contents for smoother reading and more intuitive navigation.

Projects: a simplified workflow for faster creation

A filter for project status

Archived projects are now excluded by default for a cleaner view.

Express creation from a project

From within a project, an administrator can directly initiate:

  • A request
  • A process
  • A DPIA

A significant time-saver.

A more robust workflow with dropdown lists

Milestones and deliverables are now selected via dropdown lists, reducing errors and streamlining configuration.

Data breaches: history, links, and new reports

An event log to track history

Every breach now features an event log that tracks its history. This is a major asset for your post-incident reviews.

A direct link to associated processing activities

You can enter processing activities directly from a breach and immediately see how many are associated with it.

New report formats, including a CNIL template

  • Reorganized information flow for better consistency
  • A report based on the CNIL preparatory document is available upon request

New Excel exports

Two controls allow you to extract:

  • A summary list of breaches
  • A detailed list

Media library: strengthened governance and expanded indicators

File management restricted to administrators

To ensure overall consistency, only administrators can now manage cross-functional files.

An optimized lifecycle for bulk actions

Bulk actions can be applied to a selection of objects (processing activities, DPIAs, AI systems, measures, etc.). The "Usage" tab displays several indicators to better visualize the objects being handled.

Adequacy 6.3.1, a version designed for your daily workflow

Adequacy 6.3.1 isn't a complete overhaul, but it brings significant improvements. It adds touches of fluidity, consistency, and performance that, when combined, make your daily work simpler, faster, and more enjoyable.

How does the new deadline alert work in AI governance?

A bell icon appears automatically when an opinion's expiration date is approaching or has passed:

  • Red: deadline passed

A simple way to ensure you never miss critical deadlines again.

Why were the "planned" and "archived" statuses added to AI use cases?

What does the new event log for breaches allow you to do?

It keeps a complete history of how a breach was handled. It is a valuable tool for post-incident reviews and for documenting incident management.

Can I now link processing activities directly from a breach?

Yes. You can enter a processing activity from a breach, view the number of associated activities, and synchronize data more easily.

What improvements have been made to the Projects module?

  • Filter by status (excluding archived projects)
  • Directly create requests, processes, or DPIAs from a project
  • More robust workflow with dropdown lists for milestones and deliverables
