  1. Regulatory documents are complex and lengthy, making full compliance a challenging task for businesses. Similarly, privacy policies provided by vendors frequently fall short of the necessary legal standards due to insufficient detail. To address these issues, we propose a solution that leverages a Large Language Model (LLM) in combination with Semantic Web technology. This approach aims to clarify regulatory requirements and ensure that organizations’ privacy policies align with the relevant legal frameworks, ultimately simplifying the compliance process, reducing privacy risks, and improving efficiency. In this paper, we introduce a novel tool, the Privacy Policy Compliance Verification Knowledge Graph, referred to as PrivComp-KG. PrivComp-KG is designed to efficiently store and retrieve comprehensive information related to privacy policies, regulatory frameworks, and domain-specific legal knowledge. By utilizing LLM and Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG), we can accurately identify relevant sections in privacy policies and map them to the corresponding regulatory rules. Our LLM-based retrieval system has demonstrated a high level of accuracy, achieving a correctness score of 0.9, outperforming other models in privacy policy analysis. The extracted information from individual privacy policies is then integrated into the PrivComp-KG. By combining this data with contextual domain knowledge and regulatory rules, PrivComp-KG can be queried to assess each vendor’s compliance with applicable regulations. We demonstrate the practical utility of PrivComp-KG by verifying the compliance of privacy policies across various organizations. This approach not only helps policy writers better understand legal requirements but also enables them to identify gaps in existing policies and update them in response to evolving regulations.
