GDPR Compliance for Personal / Free Accounts

GDPR Compliance for Personal / Free Accounts

Hi,

I work with various charities in the UK who often use free Dropbox accounts to share files for boards of trustees, teams etc.

There is some confusion as to whether the GDPR compliance steps that Dropbox have made apply to these accounts or only to those on Dropbox Business.

Could this be clarified please?

We have on one the side cloud services, that offer DPA, where I assume that European cloud services do, and I am already checking out the German market. On the other hand are we, who want to store personal information in the cloud, as far as I understand still obliged to encode our files. It isn't all that easy with responsibilty and cloud.

But, yes, we need a DPA, and yes, I would personally not set on it, that all companys outside GDPR territory have a full grasp of the subject when we ask in.

Hi,

 

I´d like to raise the question regarding the accessibility to DropBox' EU/EES servers for really small businesses, like one person. As I understand it DB has made it possible for 10-licens business to use this option. But...

 

When will professional one person/licens users be able to use DropBox in a legal way when conducting business within the EU/EES with regards to GDPR?

Need more support?
