Monitor Adyen compliance pages

Dutch payment platform — unified commerce, in-store POS, online acquiring, and platform payouts used by enterprise merchants globally.

Adyen publishes several compliance and legal pages that change over time. Under GDPR Article 28, data controllers using Adyen as a processor must continuously verify that "sufficient guarantees" remain in place — which means tracking changes to these pages as they happen. Below are the 4 most relevant pages, what typically changes on each, and ready-to-paste monitoring prompts.
