Quick question for AI builders: how are you handling GDPR for European clients?
Hey everyone š Question for those of you building AI chatbots for clients (or your own product): When you deploy a chatbot on a website, are you actually GDPR-compliant ā or are you hoping nobody notices? Iām based in Austria, building AI automation solutions for European SMBs, and the #1 question I get asked isnāt āhow smart is your bot?ā ā itās: āWhere is the data going? Who processes it? Do you have an AVV?ā Most US-built chatbots fail this conversation immediately because: ⢠No signed Data Processing Agreement (Art. 28 GDPR requirement) ⢠Subprocessors (OpenAI, Pinecone, Vercel) not disclosed ⢠No DatenschutzerklƤrung (privacy notice) in the local language ⢠EU AI Act transparency requirements ignored (mandatory from August 2026) Curious ā how are you handling this for European clients? Or are you avoiding the European market entirely because it feels too complicated? Happy to share what Iāve built (a 10-point GDPR transparency package) if anyone wants to dig in š
