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

**On-prem / local hosting: indirect / not available**

The website does not specify a true on-premises or self-hosting deployment on the customer’s own infrastructure. There are only references to local processing of individual functions on the end device, such as noise cancellation and, in some cases, transcription.

**Private Cloud / Data Center: Unclear**

A dedicated private cloud or isolated customer environment is not specifically described on the website. Secure cloud infrastructure and AWS are mentioned, but there is no clearly documented private cloud for EU/EEA customers.

**EU SaaS / Managed: Partially**

Krisp operates a managed SaaS offering. However, it is only partially suitable for EU/EEA requirements because, for Enterprise/Call Center customers, the service explicitly specifies U.S. hosting and does not mention regional data residency outside the U.S. Individual processing operations may take place locally or with a Finnish subprocessor; however, there is no evidence of general EU data residency for the SaaS service.

**Hybrid: covered**

The website demonstrates a hybrid processing model: noise suppression runs locally on the device; transcription can occur locally or on the server, depending on the language and settings; and recordings and certain AI functions run in the cloud.

**T&C / DPA: Covered**

A DPA is published on the website. It explicitly describes Krisp as a data processor or subprocessor in the context of the GDPR and regulates the involvement of authorized subprocessors.

**No Training: Partially**

Regarding the AI Meeting Assistant, Krisp states that data sharing or training permissions with third-party providers are deselected and that customer data should not be used for model training. On the “Privacy for Humans” page, statements are also provided for several subprocessors indicating that customer data is not used for internal training. However, a uniform, clearly centralized, and cross-product assurance covering all inputs, uploads, histories, and outputs is not fully articulated on the website.

**Open Source / Transparency Path: Indirect / Not Available**

Open-source components, open models, or self-hostable open building blocks are not listed on the website. A transparency path exists only indirectly through documentation, the DPA, the security page, and subprocessor information.

**Data Processing**

Data processing depends on the product and its features. According to the help page, noise cancellation runs locally on the device, and audio is not sent to the cloud or a server during this process. In the AI Meeting Assistant, transcription can be performed entirely locally or on the server, depending on the language and settings, with the audio subsequently deleted immediately. Meeting recordings are stored in the cloud. For the Enterprise/Call Center segment, Krisp specifies U.S. hosting; additionally, the website lists subprocessors in the United States and Finland. Thus, processing is neither purely local nor generally EU-resident, but rather a hybrid model that varies significantly depending on the product line.

**Conclusion**

From a GDPR and hosting perspective, Krisp can **only** be rated as **somewhat** positive for a European tool directory. It offers useful compliance components such as a DPA, disclosure of subprocessors, security documentation, and local processing of individual functions. At the same time, there is no clearly guaranteed EU/EEA data residency for SaaS operations, and for Enterprise/Call Center, U.S. hosting without regional data residency outside the U.S. is even explicitly mentioned. The best approach for EU/EEA users, as indicated on the website, is to use individual features as locally as possible and to closely examine the specific product line and data flows being used.

Krisp provides several components relevant to GDPR compliance on its website, including a privacy policy, a DPA/AVV, guidance on processing as a data processor, a list of subprocessors, and statements indicating that, where possible, data sharing and training with third-party providers are opt-out options. For the EU/EEA region, however, the situation is only partially favorable, because Krisp itself states for the enterprise/call center sector that all customer data is hosted on servers in the United States and that regional data residency outside the U.S. is not currently supported. At the same time, there are individual data-minimal or local processing methods, such as local noise suppression and, in some cases, device-based transcription. Thus, GDPR-compliant use is not guaranteed across the board, but only under specific use cases and with careful review of the data flow, the selected product line, and the contractual safeguards.

**Positive**

Positive aspects include the existing privacy policy, the published DPA, the identification of subprocessors, the statement regarding processing as a data processor for customers, SOC 2 Type II as the cited certification, and several references to local processing: According to the website, noise cancellation runs locally on the device, and audio is not sent to the cloud or a server; in transcription mode, transcription can take place entirely on the device, depending on the language and settings. On the security page for the AI Meeting Assistant, Krisp also explains that data sharing and training permissions are deselected for third-party providers, so that neither Krisp data nor customer data is to be used for model training.

**Negative**

From an EU/EEA perspective, the main concern is that Krisp explicitly states that its call center and enterprise offerings are hosted in the U.S. and, at the same time, explains that it currently does not support regional data residency outside the U.S. Additionally, the website lists several subprocessors located in the United States. Cloud processing is used for recordings and certain AI meeting assistant features; according to the help page, meeting recordings are stored in the cloud. The website does not provide evidence of clearly documented EU data residency for SaaS operations, a generally available self-hosting or on-premises option, or end-to-end EU/EEA operations for all product lines.

**Server Location**

For the Enterprise/Call Center segment, Krisp states that all customer data is hosted on secure servers in the United States and that regional data residency outside the U.S. is not currently supported. For the AI Meeting Assistant, the website does not specify a clear primary server location but refers to AWS infrastructure as well as subprocessors in the United States and Finland. EU/EEA data residency is not generally guaranteed on the website.
