Monitor Fastly compliance pages

Edge cloud platform โ€” CDN, edge compute (Compute@Edge), image optimization, and security services for performance-critical applications.

Fastly publishes several compliance and legal pages that change over time. Under GDPR Article 28, data controllers using Fastly as a processor must continuously verify that "sufficient guarantees" remain in place โ€” 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.
