Cloudflare features that support GDPR compliance
Encryption
Cloudflare’s network can encrypt data throughout its journey from origin servers to end-users, using the very latest protocols.
Privacy-first analytics
Cloudflare’s Web Analytics does not use any client-side state, such as cookies or localStorage, to collect usage metrics — and never ‘fingerprints’ individual users.
Data localization
Cloudflare lets organizations control which regional data centers their traffic is inspected in and where logs are sent.
Access management
Cloudflare for Teams lets organizations enforce country-specific access rules, block risky sites and content, and log access events for internal applications and data.
Reporting
Cloudflare Logs gives granular insights into every HTTP request, helping you investigate potential breaches and other security incidents.
Certifications
In addition to complying with industry-standard security certifications, Cloudflare is considered an ‘Operator of Essential Services’ under the EU Directive on Security of Network and Information Systems.
“As we tap into various public cloud services, Cloudflare serves as our independent, unified point of control — giving us the strategic flexibility to choose the right cloud solution for the job, and the ability to easily make changes down the line.”
