How Synapsecom Ensures GDPR-Compliant Hosting in Every Layer
In a world where data breaches and privacy violations make headlines almost daily, compliance isn’t optional - it’s mission-critical. For businesses operating in or serving the European market, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) sets a strict framework for how personal data is stored, processed, and protected. At Synapsecom, we go beyond checkboxes - we embed GDPR compliance into every layer of our infrastructure.
Here’s how our GDPR-first approach to hosting protects your business, your data, and your customers.
🏢 1. Data Center Location: Full EU Jurisdiction
We operate from data centers located in Greece, ensuring that all hosted data remains within the European Union - a critical requirement for GDPR compliance.
Why it matters:
- Your data never crosses borders into non-compliant jurisdictions
- Full protection under EU privacy laws and enforcement mechanisms
- Clear legal responsibility and data sovereignty
Our commitment:
All Synapsecom infrastructure is hosted in facilities governed by EU law, with transparent data handling practices and full legal clarity.
🔐 2. Physical Security: Access-Controlled, ISO-Certified Facilities
GDPR requires that data be protected not just digitally, but physically. That’s why our data centers are built with multi-layered physical security systems.
Security measures include:
- 24/7 on-site security personnel
- Biometric access controls and video surveillance
- Strict visitor logs and access zone limitations
Certifications:
We’re ISO 27001-certified, proving our information security management system (ISMS) meets international standards.
💾 3. Data Handling Policies: Minimal, Transparent, Purpose-Driven
At Synapsecom, we follow the GDPR principles of data minimization, purpose limitation, and storage limitation. We only collect and store the data we absolutely need - and we never sell or repurpose it.
Key practices:
- Transparent user agreements and clear consent protocols
- Time-bound data retention policies
- Encrypted backups and secure data erasure on request
You stay in control:
As a Synapsecom client, you can access, export, or delete your data at any time in line with GDPR’s rights of data subjects.
🔍 4. Privacy by Design: Built Into Our Systems
Compliance isn't something we add after the fact - it’s engineered into the systems we build and host.
How we apply it:
- Default encryption at rest and in transit
- Secure server provisioning and hardened OS templates
- Strict access policies and detailed audit trails
Whether you’re hosting a website, SaaS app, or custom cloud stack, our infrastructure prioritizes privacy at every layer.
👥 5. DPO Support & Breach Response Procedures
Under GDPR, timely breach reporting and risk mitigation are essential. Synapsecom has clear incident response protocols and a dedicated Data Protection Officer (DPO) available to help our clients meet their obligations.
What this means for you:
- Immediate notification and impact assessment in the event of an incident
- Collaboration with your legal or compliance team during audits
- Expert guidance on data protection best practices
We’re not just your hosting provider—we’re your compliance partner.
Protect your data. Protect your customers. Protect your business.
