What is 4Comply?
4Comply is SaaS-based privacy compliance software from 4Thought Marketing that helps organizations manage cookie consent, automate consent management, fulfill subject rights, and maintain verifiable compliance records. It empowers legal, marketing, and technical teams to work together without slowing business down. As data privacy becomes a core business requirement, 4Comply ensures compliance and trust.
What Does 4Comply Do?
4Comply helps you:
Cookie Consent for your Website
Manage website cookie consent so visitors decide which cookies and trackers run before they load. Scheduled scans find and categorize the cookies on your site, the consent banner adapts by visitor location for GDPR and CCPA, and each choice is logged for audits.
Manage consent across channels and systems
Ensure you have valid, auditable consent—wherever it’s collected. Consent refers to the explicit agreement from an individual to collect, store, or use their data. 4Comply from 4Thought Marketing provides a structured and trackable system to record when and how consent was given—essential for regulatory compliance and organizational accountability.
Determine and enforce permission in real time
Permission is the actionable outcome of your legal basis for communication. 4Comply makes it easy for systems and users to ask, “Do we currently have permission to communicate with this person?” and get a clear, reliable answer based on past consent events. This protects your outreach efforts and your brand reputation.
Automate fulfillment of DSARs and other privacy rights
Data Subject Access Requests (DSARs) require timely, thorough responses. 4Comply automates the intake, verification, tracking, and fulfillment processes—reducing manual effort and ensuring you confidently meet legal deadlines.
Maintain a tamper-proof history of every privacy activity
Auditors and regulators expect a clear record of actions taken. 4Comply’s immutable audit trail provides that assurance and supports defensible compliance.
Integrate with forms, systems, SSO, and marketing tools
No need to rebuild your stack. 4Comply from 4Thought Marketing fits your existing workflows, letting your teams move quickly without compromising compliance. Native integrations are available for Adobe Marketo Engage and Oracle Eloqua, with additional options for custom or third-party systems via our robust API. Enterprise SSO available through SAML connections.
