Abloomify launches EU data residency and GDPR compliance program. European customers get a dedicated EU environment in Frankfurt, privacy-by-default device agents, and a public Data Processing Addendum. July 22, 2026 Abloomify Team TORONTO, CANADA, July 22, 2026 - Abloomify, the privacy-first workforce intelligence platform for technology companies, today announced the launch of its GDPR compliance program, headlined by a dedicated European Union environment with full data residency and a privacy-by-default architecture built specifically for European employers. European customers are now provisioned on Abloomify's EU environment, hosted in AWS Frankfurt (eu-central-1). Everything that powers the platform lives inside the European Union: the application database, telemetry collected by device agents and integrations, product analytics, and AI processing on the platform's default models. Installers generated for EU companies are configured with EU endpoints only, so device data from European organizations flows only to the European environment. Privacy by default, not by configuration. Abloomify's approach goes beyond hosting. For companies on the EU environment, device-agent data collection starts fully disabled on every platform. Agents collect and transmit no usage telemetry until a company administrator explicitly approves specific applications or domains, or turns collection on. Data collection is a deliberate decision by the employer, never a default. The enforcement happens where it matters most: on the device itself. * Administrators choose one of three collection states per platform: collect activity, collect only an approved allowlist, or collect nothing * Allowlists are enforced at the moment of capture, so activity outside the approved list is never recorded and never leaves the machine * The agents have no capability to capture screenshots, keystrokes, or the content of communications, in any configuration * Telemetry awaiting transmission is held in a bounded in-memory queue on the device and is never written to disk "European employers should not have to choose between understanding their organization and respecting their people," said Amir Tavafi, Co-Founder and CEO of Abloomify. "We built our EU environment so that the private-by-default answer is also the easy answer: data stays in Europe, nothing is collected until an employer decides it should be, and what is out of scope never leaves the device." "Data residency is an architecture decision, not a checkbox," added Reza Vatani, Co-Founder and Chief AI Officer. "From the database to AI inference, the EU environment keeps processing inside the European Union, and every external provider on the platform stays off until an administrator turns it on." Transparency customers can verify. As part of the program, Abloomify has published the documents that European buyers and their data protection officers ask for first: * A public Data Processing Addendum covering GDPR Article 28 processing terms, security measures, subprocessors, international transfers, and audit rights, with the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses and the UK International Data Transfer Addendum incorporated where applicable, so the program covers both the EU GDPR and the UK GDPR * An updated Privacy Policy that spells out the controller and processor roles, legal bases, retention, and data subject rights * A Trust Center with security controls, compliance reports, and the current subprocessor list Documentation supporting Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs), works council review, and employee notices is available to customers on request, reflecting how workforce analytics deployments actually get approved in Europe: with the employer in control as data controller, and Abloomify supporting as processor. Built on an audited security foundation. The GDPR program builds on Abloomify's existing security posture, including SOC 2 Type II certification covering Security, Availability, and Confidentiality, and CASA Tier 2 validation for Google-connected workflows. The same principles carry through the whole platform: no keystroke logging, no screenshots, no audio or video capture, and AI features that generate insights for human review rather than automated decisions about individuals. Availability. The EU environment is available now for new European customers at app-eu.abloomify.com, with each customer provisioned in exactly one region. To learn more: About Abloomify.
