TruePrivacy + Redis
Identify and manage personal data stored in Redis.
Overview
Redis is a high-performance in-memory data store used for caching, session management, and real-time data. While often thought of as a cache, Redis frequently stores personal data — user sessions, recently accessed profiles, shopping cart contents, and temporary tokens — that must be included in DSR responses.
TruePrivacy integrates with Redis to discover what personal data patterns are stored, identify keys containing data subject information, and automate deletion of personal data from Redis when DSRs are processed.
What TruePrivacy can do
Data types accessed
- •User session tokens
- •Cached user profiles
- •Shopping cart data
- •Temporary authentication tokens
- •Rate limiting counters with user identifiers
DSR capabilities
- Identify Redis keys containing a data subject's data
- Delete matching keys as part of DSR workflow
- Export cached data for access requests
How it works
- 1
Connect TruePrivacy to your Redis instance using connection credentials and an optional ACL user scoped to read-only access.
- 2
TruePrivacy scans key patterns and samples values to identify personal data stored in Redis.
- 3
DSR requests trigger a key search for the data subject's identifiers across configured key namespaces.
- 4
Deletion requests execute DEL commands on matching keys, with all deleted keys logged in the audit trail.
Frequently asked questions
Yes. TruePrivacy supports both standalone Redis and Redis Cluster topologies. In cluster mode, TruePrivacy connects to all cluster nodes to ensure complete key scanning across all shards.
TruePrivacy uses configurable key prefix patterns (e.g., 'session:', 'user:') to scope the scan. Values are sampled and analysed for personal data patterns. You can configure which namespaces to include and exclude from scanning.
