Confidentiality and GDPR

GDPR: Strong

Donor data is personal data under the GDPR; use only systems with a data processing agreement and preferably EU hosting. Automated donor profiling (wealth screening) can be sensitive: be transparent in your privacy policy. AI-written grant applications require human checking for accuracy and alignment with the organisation's identity.

Data is stored in the US by default; EU data residency is possible via AWS Bedrock or Google Vertex AI (EU region). Business tiers and the API do not train on your input; consumer tiers do, unless you opt out.

Rule of thumb Use the business variant with a data processing agreement, and keep a human in the loop for decisions that matter.
