Since then, the United Kingdom has adopted a parallel privacy framework known as **UK GDPR** following its departure from the EU. At BugSplat, we take your data privacy seriously. We’ve worked hard to meet and exceed the obligations set out in both the **EU GDPR** and the **UK GDPR**. *** ### BugSplat as a Data Processor BugSplat operates as a **processor** on behalf of our customers, who act as controllers of their end-user data. We only process data as instructed by our customers and in accordance with applicable data protection laws. *** ### What We’ve Done to Comply with the GDPR & UK GDPR **Company-Level Actions** * Consulted with external counsel to understand how both EU and UK GDPR affect BugSplat and our users * Reviewed and updated our **Data Processing Agreement (DPA)** to reflect: * The latest **EU Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs)** * The **UK Addendum** for data transfers from the United Kingdom * Audited all vendors and subprocessors and signed DPAs where required **Product-Level Changes** * Give customers the option to **automatically obfuscate** personally identifiable information (PII) such as usernames, email addresses, and IP addresses * Added a **consent checkbox** to crash dialog forms for end-users to voluntarily provide crash data * Provide tooling to allow customers to **permanently delete** specific users, email addresses, or IPs from all crash reports *** #### Our Data Processing Agreement (DPA) Our DPA reflects the requirements under both the **EU GDPR** and **UK GDPR**, including SCCs and the UK Addendum for international data transfers. If you'd like to review or sign our DPA, please contact us at . **Additional Information** For more info about BugSplat and GDPR please see our [Security](/guides/production/security-privacy-and-compliance/security-program.md) page and our [Privacy Policy](/guides/production/security-privacy-and-compliance/privacy-policy.md). --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com. ## Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters: ``` GET https://docs.bugsplat.com/guides/production/security-privacy-and-compliance/gdpr.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
