Dealfront and Data Processing

The way Dealfront processes data is compliant with GDPR legislation.

Strong data protection commitments are a key part of the GDPR requirements. Our Data Processing Agreement shares our privacy commitments when we act as a data processor and sets out the terms for Dealfront and our customers to meet the GDPR requirements.

You can access the DPA here.

If you request to interact with our Dealfront entity in the USA, a DPA containing the European Standard Contractual Clauses in order to safeguard the transfer to the USA, applies. You can download this DPA + SCC here.
