Transcend
The compliance layer for customer data

Transcend is an enterprise compliance platform that embeds data-use permissions directly into customer data systems, enabling organizations to activate customer data for AI, personalization, and marketing while honoring consent and regulatory requirements. It provides a unified preference store and policy-driven decision engine that syncs across data warehouses, marketing stacks, and engagement platforms. The platform also includes a proprietary security gateway called Sombra that runs entirely within the customer's own environment.
Transcend embeds data-use permissions directly into existing customer data systems and syncs a unified preference store across all channels, automatically enforcing consent policies at the source.
