# OneTrust AI Governance

- **Type:** Software product
- **Website:** https://www.onetrust.com/products/ai-governance/
- **Assessed by:** The Assurance Desk (Add-Venture Advisory Ltd)

An AI governance module within OneTrust's privacy software, which organisations license to list, risk-assess, monitor and set rules for their AI systems. It is software, not advice.

## OneTrust AI Governance scores

Scored 1 to 5 on six criteria. There is no overall score.

### Help when things go wrong: 4/5

Product marketing states 'governance actions generate audit trails automatically, keeping evidence continuously current and regulator-ready,' with automated model cards, bills of materials and lineage reports mapped to EU AI Act/NIST templates.

### Qualifications of the people who do the work: 5/5

Trust page lists eight or more named, verifiable independent certifications (ISO 27001, ISO 27701, ISO 27017, SOC 2 Type II, PCI DSS, TISAX, HITRUST, ISO 9001) covering the vendor's own operations.

### What it publishes about fees: 1/5

Pricing page names only the metrics pricing is based on with no published figures or tiers; a personalised quote call is the only route to a price.

### Knowledge of your sector: 2/5

Sector targeting (financial services, healthcare, retail) is mentioned in marketing copy and a KPMG alliance page, but no distinct sector-specific product module or feature set was documented.

### Independence from what it sells: 4/5

Multiple named certifications (SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001 family) are formal third-party-audited standards, though ISO 42001 for OneTrust's own AI management system specifically was not found among its self-certifications.

### Who carries the risk if the advice is wrong: 3/5

A downloadable Master Terms of Service document exists publicly, and secondary summaries describe a liability cap tied to amounts paid and mutual exclusion of consequential damages, but exact clause wording could not be fully extracted to verify.

## Strengths

- Broadest published list of independently issued security/compliance certifications among the vendors researched (ISO 27001, ISO 27701, ISO 27017, SOC 2 Type II, PCI DSS, TISAX, HITRUST, ISO 9001)
- Confirmed UK Government Digital Marketplace (G-Cloud) listing specifically for the AI Governance product
- Publishes a named set of self-applied AI Principles and discloses operating an internal AI Governance Committee overseeing its own AI use, one of the few vendors researched to make this disclosure
- Active UK Companies House-registered entity (OneTrust Technology Limited) with a long UK operating history, registered since 2001

## Things to check

Each one carries the factual basis it rests on.

- Pricing is entirely sales-gated: the public pricing page names only the metrics pricing is based on (admin users, AI inventory size) but discloses no figures, tiers or starting price.
  - Basis: https://www.onetrust.com/pricing/ shows only 'Get Pricing' / 'Schedule a quick call for a personalized quote' with no published numbers
- Despite marketing AI Governance for 'Financial Services, Healthcare, and Retail & E-commerce,' no distinct sector-specific product module or SKU page was found; sector targeting appears to be go-to-market positioning rather than a separately documented product line.
  - Basis: No dedicated sector-module page was found on onetrust.com beyond general positioning language and a KPMG alliance page, https://kpmg.com/us/en/capabilities-services/alliances/kpmg-onetrust/ai-governance.html
- AI-Governance-specific named customer case studies are thin, only one customer (Mews) appears filtered under the 'AI Governance' topic on the public customers page, with other AI-governance quotes surfacing in press releases rather than full case studies.
  - Basis: https://www.onetrust.com/customers/ surfaces Mews as the primary AI Governance-tagged case study; broader named logos (GOL Airlines, Sara Assicurazioni, MillerKnoll) are tagged to other OneTrust products

**Scope.** The Assurance Desk covers data protection, AI governance and cyber security in the United Kingdom and the United States. It scores providers in both: UK-facing firms, and firms based in the United States. Every provider scored so far was selected for data-protection, AI-governance or security-assurance work. Where a page describes law, it names the country that law applies in.

**Who publishes this.** The Assurance Desk is published by Add-Venture Advisory Ltd, company number 11854524, registered in England and Wales. The same owner runs Avouch, a marketing agency that sells AI visibility services to firms of the kind this site covers. That is a conflict of interest, and it is disclosed here.

**Corrections.** If you represent this firm and something here is wrong or out of date, email hello@theassurancedesk.com with the evidence.
