Rapoarte politică de confidențialitate

One of the strongest privacy policies in the AI chat space — fully EU-hosted, transparent subprocessor list, no AI training on user data, and no US-based providers.

Nineties Engineering OÜ's website EU Alternative is a model of privacy-by-design, collecting almost no personal data, avoiding all tracking, and keeping everything hosted exclusively in the EU.

Proton offers strong privacy protections with end-to-end encryption and minimal data collection, though some data is shared with US-based processors for payments and support, and network traffic may route through third parties to bypass censorship.

Kolsetu generally respects EU privacy rules, but it over‑collects usage data, lacks a public DPO, and provides limited detail on some international transfers.

Langdock is a privacy-conscious EU-based AI platform that explicitly bans using your content to train AI models and keeps data in the EU, though it relies on some US sub-processors and has vague retention periods in places.

Qwant offers strong baseline privacy for anonymous search, but creating an account or consenting to cookies triggers significant data sharing with Microsoft for personalized ads and AI features, creating a gap between its privacy branding and actual data flows.

Signal genuinely collects almost nothing and encrypts everything, but its legal documentation is outdated and missing critical GDPR-mandated disclosures like transfer safeguards, retention periods, and user rights procedures.

Slack collects a wide range of personal and usage data, relying heavily on broad legitimate interests to process it and transfer it globally, though it does provide standard GDPR rights and safeguards like Standard Contractual Clauses.

Best European Alternatives genuinely minimizes data and avoids cookies, but uses US-based processors without addressing international transfer safeguards and omits key GDPR rights and legal details.

eustella makes strong privacy promises — no data selling, no third-party sharing, no AI training on your data, and all processing stays in the EU — but this is marketing copy, not a binding privacy policy, and critical details on data collection, retention, sub-processors, and user rights are absent from the provided text.

Bluesky collects broad behavioral data and stores your direct messages unencrypted, but earns points for refusing to sell your data for targeted ads and providing solid GDPR rights infrastructure.

Cal.com provides standard GDPR rights and a subprocessor list, but fails to specify the legal basis for EU-to-US data transfers and remains silent on AI training data usage.

Grindr collects deeply sensitive data—including HIV status, precise geolocation, and biometric information—from a vulnerable community, ships it all to the US with no EU establishment, and reserves the right to keep training AI on it even after you opt out.
