## DSGVO und Datenschutz
**Gesamteinschätzung:** Conditional

Grammarly is a cloud-based US SaaS tool with strong integration into browsers, desktop apps, email clients, Google Docs, Microsoft Word, Slack, Salesforce, Teams, Zendesk, and other applications. From a data protection perspective, the tool is well suited for general writing and communication tasks, but for personal, confidential, or regulated content it is only advisable with proper configuration, a DPA, training disabled, role/permission management, and internal usage policies.


**Conclusion:**

Suitable for productivity, communication, and text quality; limited for sensitive data. For EU companies, Enterprise or a Sales team account is preferable because training use is disabled by default there and additional controls such as DLP, Confidential Mode, SSO, roles/permissions, and BYOK are available. There is no verified public information available for on-premises, local hosting, or EU-only hosting.


[Data Privacy Addendum](https://superhuman.com/legal/dpa)

**Grammarly** can be usable for EU companies, but not without a data protection review. Positive aspects include the DPA, SCCs, DPF reference, encryption, admin controls, and enterprise security features. Critical aspects include US hosting, international transfers, and the training/product improvement settings depending on the account type.


**Positive: **

• Data Privacy Addendum available.

• Standard Contractual Clauses are provided for EU/UK transfers where required.

• Grammarly states GDPR/CCPA compliance, AES-256 encryption for data at rest, and SSL/TLS for data transmission.

• Enterprise/Sales Team accounts: Product Improvement & Training is disabled by default; according to Grammarly, organizational content is then not used for training or product improvement for other customers.

• According to Grammarly, third-party LLM providers are not allowed to use user content to train their models.

• Grammarly states that it does not sell or monetize content.


**Negative:**

• According to the DPA and Security page, Grammarly hosts server-side infrastructure in AWS data centers in the USA, specifically US East; there is no publicly documented EU-only hosting.

• Individual Free, Premium, and Single-User Pro accounts have Product Improvement & Training enabled by default; users can disable it.

• According to Grammarly, Multi-User Pro accounts purchased directly via the website also start with the training/product improvement setting enabled; admins can disable this.

• Grammarly may process data outside the country of residence and relies on appropriate safeguards, among other things, for transfers.


**Server location:** USA, AWS US East. Grammarly states that it uses Amazon Web Services in the United States, or AWS data centers in the US East region, for its server-side infrastructure.
