Llama has a specific GDPR concern. The Llama 4 Acceptable Use Policy prohibits the multimodal models for businesses headquartered in the EU. Dutch businesses therefore may not, under the licence, install the multimodal Llama 4 models themselves. Weigh this heavily before deploying it in construction & installation.
Confidentiality and GDPR
GDPR: CautionConstruction drawings and tender documents are often confidential or commercially sensitive. Check where documents are processed and whether they are used for model training.
Self-hosting gives full data control within your own EU infrastructure, a strong GDPR argument.
