# OneTrust vs TrustArc

*Enterprise Privacy Management Platforms*

## How does OneTrust compare to TrustArc?

OneTrust and TrustArc are the two veteran US privacy management platforms. OneTrust is the larger and broader — Privacy, GRC, ethics, ESG, third-party risk in one platform. TrustArc is narrower (privacy-only) but has 20+ years of enterprise privacy assessments and was the original incumbent before OneTrust scaled.

## Feature comparison

| Attribute | OneTrust | TrustArc |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Headquarters | Atlanta, Georgia, USA | San Francisco, USA |
| Founded | 2016 | 1997 (as TRUSTe) |
| Product breadth | Privacy + GRC + ESG + Ethics + Third-party Risk | Privacy management only (deep) |
| Pricing transparency | None published; median $11.5k/yr (PriceLevel) | None published; quote-only |
| EU data residency | Enterprise plan opt-in | Enterprise plan opt-in |
| CLOUD Act exposure (US parent) | Yes | Yes |
| EU AI Act module | OneTrust AI Governance (separate product, additional cost) | AI Risk Assessment add-on |

## Where does EuroComply fit?

Both vendors are excellent for large enterprises that need everything in one suite, but are US-headquartered and subject to the CLOUD Act through their US parents. EU-headquartered alternatives that cover GDPR + AI Act + NIS 2 + DORA in one workspace are scarcer at the enterprise tier; EuroComply targets EU SMEs and mid-market, not Fortune-500 buyers.
