Europrivacy FAQ

Organisations bound by the EU GDPR can benefit from Europrivacy certification, as it clearly demonstrates compliance with the Regulation. This can improve customer trust and strengthen B2B relationships.

The Europrivacy certification is managed and continually updated by the ECCP (European Centre for Certification and Privacy) in Luxembourg and its International Board of Experts in data protection, with the support of official partners across the EU.

In April 2026, the EDPB approved updated Europrivacy criteria, including a version of the certification designed to support international data transfers. The EDPB also confirmed that it applies to organisations outside the EU subject to the GDPR.
