Tools to help manage your users' data in the age of GDPR
https://github.com/wildfish/django-gdpr-assist
- Find, export and anonymise personal data to comply with GDPR requests
- Track anonymisation and deletion of personal data to replay after restoring backups
- Anonymise all models to sanitise working copies of a production database
Supports Django 2.2 to 4.0, on Python 3.6 to 3.10.

Install with pip install django-gdpr-assist, add gdpr_assist to
Django's INSTALLED_APPS and add a gdpr_log definition to DATABASES.
Then start adding privacy metadata to your models:
class Comment(models.Model):
name = models.CharField(max_length=255, blank=True)
age = models.IntegerField(null=True, blank=True)
message = models.TextField()
class PrivacyMeta:
fields = ['name', 'age']
search_fields = ['name']
export_fields = ['name', 'age', 'message']
This will allow you to anonymise and export data in this model using the
standard gdpr-assist admin tool. You can also configure anonymisation or
deletion of a related model to trigger anonymisation of your model, and can
manually register a PrivacyMeta for third-party models without modifying
their code.
Anonymisation and deletion events for models registered with gdpr-assist are
logged for replay after a backup restoration with the gdpr_rerun management
command. When you need to work with a copy of the production data, there is
also the anonymise_db command, which will anonymise the whole database.
