Get started with Dxtra

Answer a questionnaire (~10 minutes), and Dxtra's AI engine produces your privacy notices, assessments, consent templates, and Transparency Center (~60 minutes) — covering 500+ obligations across 140+ countries.

Key concepts

Before diving in, here are the terms you'll see throughout the documentation:

Data Controller
Your organization — the entity that determines how and why personal data is processed. This is the primary account entity in Dxtra.
Data Subject
An identifiable person whose personal data you process — your customers, users, employees, or website visitors. Data subjects interact with your Transparency Center, not the dashboard.
Processing Activities
Article 30-compliant records documenting purpose, legal basis, data categories, recipients, international transfers, and retention periods for each way you use personal data.
Transparency Center
Your public-facing privacy portal where data subjects view your policies, manage consent preferences, and submit rights requests. Hosted on your subdomain or embedded as a web component.
AI Regeneration
When regulations change or your business context evolves, Dxtra's AI regenerates the relevant compliance documents. Regeneration quota varies by plan.

Learn all key concepts

Depending on what you need to do, here are the most common starting points beyond the quickstarts:

  • Set up your Transparency Center — Transparency Center guide covers customization, embedding, and subdomain configuration

  • Add privacy-first analytics — Tag Manager guide covers installation, consent enforcement, and event tracking
  • Integrate with your stack — Integrations overview lists pre-built connectors for Shopify, Stripe, HubSpot, Mailchimp, and more
