Filestack is Certified with the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework for HR and Non-HR Data

On April 17, 2017, Filestack became compliant with the EU-US Privacy Shield framework.

Privacy Shield replaces Safe Harbor to protect EU citizens’ data from US surveillance and address privacy concerns.

 

EU-US Privacy Shield

What does it mean to be Privacy Shield Compliant?

To be Privacy Shield compliant, one must comply with EU data transfer laws, when it comes to following up with privacy complaints. In Filestack’s case, we will always remove a file or asset within seven days at any user request, or the person can follow up with the Better Business Bureau to ensure action.
