Privacy details

Risk register planner processes your input in this browser. Inputs and results are excluded from analytics. Recent tools save tool names, visit counts and last-visit times. Saved tools store only their names. Draft saving is optional and stays on this device; delete saved text with the draft controls. Loading text from a URL is optional and contacts that server; its URL and your IP address are visible to the server. An optional “Use in” action keeps a handoff in this tab. The next tool removes it on arrival and ignores it if more than a minute has passed.

Copy link includes the inputs you choose to share in the address. Anyone with that link can reopen them. Files and generated results are excluded. Password and key tools share settings only.

Risk register planner explained

Sort a risk register by a simple likelihood-times-impact score while preserving the owner and status of every risk. The two ratings are your ordinal scales from 1 to 5; the product is a way to order discussion, not a probability.

A worked example

Likelihood 3 multiplied by impact 4 gives a priority score of 12. A closed risk stays in the export but is not counted among open items.

Before you use the result

No universal severity thresholds or safety assurances are supplied. Agree what each rating means with the people responsible for the work. The register does not replace a domain-specific risk assessment.
