Note: This document describes how Threat Stack conforms with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
Commitment to GDPR and Our Customers
Threat Stack is committed to data privacy and security, including complying with and, where applicable, helping our customers and users comply with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). GDPR is the comprehensive EU-wide data privacy law that went into effect on May 25, 2018. Besides strengthening and standardizing user data privacy across the EU, it introduced new or additional obligations on all organizations that handle EU residents’ personal data, regardless of where the organizations are located.
In preparing for GDPR, the Threat Stack team decided to apply these standards to its entire privacy program, covering all citizens — not just those in the EU. Since GDPR sets the highest and most reasonable regulatory standard, this means that as new privacy regulations come to bear — such as the California Consumer Privacy Act — we are more likely to be able to support those standards on day zero.

Building on our robust privacy and security program, our team has adapted our policies, products, and business strategy to address GDPR’s significant new requirements. Measures we have implemented include:
