Architecture

Storage

• SQLite Database at ~/.nex-gdpr/gdpr.db
• Tables: requests, data_findings, audit_trail, retention_policies
• Indexes on status, type, deadline for fast queries

Data Scanning

• OpenClaw Sessions: Scans .openclaw/sessions and .claw/sessions
• Agent Memory: Scans .nex-memory directory
• Logs: Scans .nex-logs for user references
• Other Databases: Scans other nex-* skill databases
• PII Detection: Email, phone, national numbers, VAT numbers

Request Processing

• ACCESS: Creates ZIP export of all found data
• ERASURE: Securely deletes files (3-pass overwrite)
• PORTABILITY: Exports JSON format with metadata
• RECTIFICATION: Tracks corrections to personal data
• All actions logged with timestamps and actor information

Compliance

• 30-day Response Deadline: Automatically calculated from GDPR Article 12
• 60-day Extension: For complex requests (logged and tracked)

The scanner searches the following locations for personal data:

• ~/.openclaw/sessions - OpenClaw session files
• ~/.claw/sessions - Alternative Claw sessions
• ~/.nex-memory - Agent memory files
• ~/.nex-logs - Application logs
• ~/.nex-uploads - Uploaded files
• Other nex-* skill databases (life-logger, inbox, notes, etc.)

Configurable via environment variables:

export OPENCLAW_SESSIONS="/custom/sessions/path"
export NEX_GDPR_SCAN_PATHS="/path1:/path2:/path3"
