Monitor PayPal compliance pages

Digital payments platform — consumer wallets, merchant checkout, Braintree payment processing, and cross-border transfers.

PayPal publishes several compliance and legal pages that change over time. Under GDPR Article 28, data controllers using PayPal 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 2 most relevant pages, what typically changes on each, and ready-to-paste monitoring prompts.
