We comply with key European Union (EU) data protection regulations to ensure personal data is handled securely and in line with legal requirements.
The EU GDPR is a privacy regulation that came into effect on May 25, 2018, to protect the personal data of individuals within the EU and European Economic Area. It grants individuals rights over their data, such as access, correction, and deletion, and requires organizations to handle data transparently, securely, and with consent. GDPR applies to any entity processing EU residents’ data, regardless of location, and imposes significant penalties for non-compliance, including fines of up to €20 million or 4% of global revenue. Its goal is to strengthen privacy rights and standardize data protection across the EU. You can review the full text of GDPR here.
The ePrivacy Directive, also known as the “Cookie Law,” is an EU regulation that focuses on privacy and electronic communications. It complements the GDPR by specifically addressing confidentiality, data protection, and consent in online activities such as email marketing, messaging, and the use of cookies or tracking technologies. Adopted in 2002 and amended in 2009, it requires websites and digital services to obtain user consent before storing or accessing information on their devices, ensuring transparency about data usage. You can review the full text of ePrivacy Directive here.
We also adhere to specific data protection laws in the EU member states where we operate.
By adhering to these regulations, we ensure the protection of personal data and comply with both legal and ethical standards, building trust with our stakeholders.
Each EU member state has its own Data Protection Authority, responsible for overseeing compliance with GDPR and other national data protection laws. For a full list of DPAs, visit the European Data Protection Board website.
Netskope’s compliance framework covers all personal data we process in connection with our services, whether it relates to customers, employees, or third parties.
