Remote
Data hosted in the EU
Remote stores its data in Ireland, which allows personal data to benefit from the strong safeguards of the EU's privacy framework.
International data transfers
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). Suitable security controls are applied at all times to protect the confidentiality of data in transit.

To comply with GDPR and meet SOC 2 and ISO 27001 security standards, Remote has established strong internal policies and procedures that the Data Protection and Security teams regularly review and update.
Training and awareness
All Remote employees complete mandatory training on information security and data protection, including our privacy and security protocols during onboarding and at regular intervals. We provide additional role-specific training where required, together with ongoing company-wide data protection and security awareness programmes.

Accountability
Aligned with the principle of accountability, Remote demonstrates compliance through meticulous internal record-keeping and by providing clients with compliant, service-specific documentation. Remote supplies clients with a comprehensive Data Processing Addendum (DPA) and maintains a transparent Privacy Policy.
Privacy by design and default
Remote designs and operates its services in accordance with privacy by design and by default principles to effectively safeguard individual rights. Embedding data protection principles into Remote’s business activities and services is a top priority.
