Atlanta-based startup OneTrust, which makes privacy, security and data governance technology, said it is getting a $300 million third round of funding, bringing the total it has raised in 18 months to $710 million.

“This gives us a war chest so we can think more strategically about the long term and about acquisitions,” said OneTrust Chairman Alan Dabbiere, adding the company is “growing very quickly.”
