Hi, is the CH Global region GDPR compliant right now? If yes, will it stay compliant in the future also?
Background: We need to be GDPR compliant so we are analyzing if we need to move to Europe region or if CH region is good enough. Thank you!

Hi @MerryMagic, I'm an AI assistant for ZITADEL. While a team member reviews this question, I'll see if I can find relevant sources for your question.
Answer
ZITADEL is headquartered in Switzerland, which is recognized by the European Commission as providing an adequate level of data protection, and ZITADEL states that it is fully compliant with existing GDPR regulations and provides the required technical and organizational measures to protect personal data (1) . When you select a region like CH (Switzerland) , your data is stored within that region, and ZITADEL ensures that all data in transit is encrypted and handled by trusted vendors with equivalent or stronger privacy protection guarantees, bound by a data processing agreement .
For ongoing compliance, ZITADEL notes that as a Swiss service provider, it can provide a high degree of GDPR compliance, and that Switzerland is considered adequate by the EU. However, future regulatory changes or adequacy decisions are not explicitly guaranteed in the documentation .
