What is GDPR compliance
GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) compliance means following the EU’s strict rules on how organizations collect, process, store, and protect personal data. It requires transparency, lawful data processing, user consent, purpose limitation, data minimization, encryption, breach notifications, and strong security practices. Even non-EU companies must comply if they handle data about individuals in the EU.
What being GDPR-compliant means for a data vendor
For SonarX, GDPR compliance means implementing legal and technical controls to ensure any data we provide or process meets GDPR standards. This includes verifying data sources are lawful, using contracts and Data Processing Agreements (DPAs), enabling data subject rights (access, deletion, correction), maintaining audit trails, ensuring secure storage/transfer, and conducting regular risk assessments. SonarX must also support customers in demonstrating compliance.
Benefits for enterprise customers using GDPR-compliant data vendors
Enterprises gain reduced legal and financial risk, since compliant vendors minimize exposure to fines and violations. They also benefit from higher-quality, verified, ethically sourced data; stronger security; better trust from their own clients; and smoother procurement because compliance documentation is readily available. It accelerates internal audits and improves overall data governance.
Why using GDPR-compliant data vendors is essential for enterprise customers
Enterprises remain legally responsible for any personal data their vendors provide or process. Using non-compliant vendors exposes them to multi-million-euro penalties, investigations, operational disruptions, and reputational damage. GDPR-compliant vendors act as risk-reduction partners, ensuring enterprises can scale data-driven operations while maintaining legal integrity, customer trust, and secure workflows.
