Data hosted in the EU

International transfers of data
When transferring data internationally, Remote relies on adequacy decisions or implements appropriate safeguards, such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or the EU‑U.S. Data Privacy Framework (DPF). Appropriate security measures are applied to protect the confidentiality of data in transit at all times.
