How Who Gives a Crap achieved 100% global compliance and accelerated fulfillment

Putting Privacy Into Purpose: A Global Brand’s Compliance Journey

Who Gives A Crap sells sustainably designed toilet paper, tissues, paper towels, and other products - and donates 50% of profits to help build toilets and improve access to clean water. The company is deeply committed to ethical practices - not only in sustainability but also in data privacy and responsible data handling.

As the company expanded globally, ensuring compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and other international laws became a top priority. To streamline privacy operations, reduce risk, and maintain customer trust, Who Gives A Crap partnered with MineOS.

The Challenge:
Scaling Privacy Compliance Across Borders, Teams, and Tools

As Who Gives A Crap expanded its global footprint, scaling privacy compliance became increasingly complex. The team was managing Data Subject Requests (DSRs) manually and trying to maintain an accurate, compliant Record of Processing Activities (RoPA) across 15+ countries and 42+ internal systems, spanning CRM platforms, cloud storage, and third-party tools.

Operating under frameworks like GDPR and CCPA, they faced pressure to streamline processes without introducing compliance risk. For a company built on transparency and purpose, one that donates 50% of profits to clean water initiatives and works closely with nonprofit partners, privacy wasn’t just about meeting legal requirements. It was about upholding the same trust, accountability, and ethics that define its brand.

To sustain this promise, the company needed a scalable, automated solution that simplified compliance without compromising control, accuracy, or credibility.
