Confidentiality and GDPR

GDPR: Strong

Notaries are bound by strict confidentiality (art. 22 Wna) and liability for the content of deeds. Client data is personal data under the GDPR; audio recordings of signing meetings must not be sent unencrypted to external servers. Only use systems with EU hosting and a data processing agreement, where input is not used for model training. AI output for deeds and advice always requires verification by a qualified notary.

Data is held in the EU by default (Paris cloud, plus EU regions via Bedrock/Azure/Vertex). Open models run entirely in your own environment. Pro/Team/Enterprise and API do not train on your data.

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