Use a change register with the rule, legal entity, official URL, status, publication date, effective date, compliance date, accountable reviewer and next check. Mark a proposal, guidance document and binding rule differently. Require the owner to explain what changes in the service scope and why.

Before signing, verify that notification assistance, evidence retention, subcontractors, data location and access restrictions fit the applicable obligations. During service, review this register when the company acquires a business, expands into a regulated activity or changes critical data flows. This cadence is a practical recommendation, not a substitute for any prescribed review schedule.
