"Data Lineage" has been replaced by "Record Lineage."

How can I utilize data/record lineage to handle my compliance obligations?
Data lineage is the ability to track where data goes as it moves through data processing systems. By setting up a data lineage and using it, organizations can get a better idea of how data moves through the organization. A live data lineage was a very useful tool for both people who manage data and people who use it. Now, organizations need data lineage to meet compliance requirements. But “data lineage” alone is not enough to demonstrate privacy.
When organizations get information from a person, they usually get more than one piece of personal information. This information is collected for a reason and for a legal amount of time. When all of these pieces of information are put together, they start to make up people’s records. The new compliance rules basically say that pieces of these records need to be managed together, no matter where they are physically located. Also, these records must be managed based on how long they are supposed to be kept when they are made.
Organizations need to get rid of records when they no longer have a legal reason to keep them. The hard part is finding every copy of the record in the organization so that it can be thrown away. This could be handled if organizations didn’t have hundreds of processes to keep track of for compliance. Organizations collect personal information for many reasons, like marketing, hiring employees, keeping in touch with customers, accepting job applications, dealing with customer complaints, keeping track of people who come to their meetings, and more.
