GDPR Compliance

E-mailer is committed to protecting data privacy and complying with the EU General Data Protection Regulation. Here's how we do it.

Our GDPR Commitments

Data Processing Agreement

We offer a GDPR-compliant DPA to all customers. It covers our obligations as a data processor, sub-processors, data breach notification procedures, and data deletion commitments.

Encryption & Security

AES-256 encryption at rest, TLS 1.3 in transit. SOC 2 Type II certified infrastructure. Regular penetration testing and security audits by independent third parties.

EU Data Processing

E-mailer offers EU-based data processing through AWS eu-west-1 (Ireland) for customers who require data residency within the European Economic Area.

Sub-Processor Transparency

We maintain a public list of sub-processors and notify customers at least 30 days before adding new ones, giving you the right to object.

We maintain a dedicated incident response team and conduct annual breach simulation exercises to ensure our response process is effective and timely.
