What is the DPF and why is it important for my business?
The Data Privacy Framework (DPF) is an international privacy program that allows U.S. companies like Stacksync to legally receive personal data from the EU, UK, and Switzerland. This is essential for companies working with European clients or handling transatlantic data transfers, as it ensures compliance with GDPR and similar laws—reducing legal risks and streamlining global business.
How does Stacksync ensure DPF compliance?
Stacksync undergoes independent assessment, self-certifies annually with the U.S. Department of Commerce, and applies strict privacy controls, transparent dispute resolution, and oversight by U.S. regulators. Our platform continuously monitors data flows and applies best-in-class encryption, access control, and policy enforcement.
What benefits does DPF provide to Stacksync customers?
Clients using Stacksync enjoy fast, lawful international data transfers—without the hassle of Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or complex risk assessments. DPF compliance provides a legal foundation for seamless collaboration, faster onboarding, and worry-free business expansion across the EU, UK, Switzerland, and the U.S.
Is DPF compliance enough for GDPR and other privacy laws?
DPF compliance provides a robust legal mechanism for transatlantic data flows and is recognized as adequate for GDPR, UK GDPR, and Swiss law. However, your business must still fulfill other requirements under these regulations—such as lawful data processing, transparency, and upholding data subject rights. Stacksync helps by building strong privacy controls into every workflow.
How can I prove Stacksync’s DPF compliance to my partners or auditors?
Clients can request Stacksync’s current DPF certification and review our published privacy and data transfer policies. We maintain clear documentation, audit-ready evidence, and third-party attestation to help you answer vendor due diligence, procurement, and compliance questions quickly.
