## Kurzbeschreibung
**"Your AI team that's there for you around the clock."**

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

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

An on-premise, local, or self-hosting deployment of Notion or Notion AI is not indicated on the website.

**Private cloud / data center: partial**

There is a scoped data residency option for Enterprise customers with storage of certain customer data categories in European AWS regions. However, this is not a fully isolated private cloud in the strict sense, and other data categories may be processed outside the selected region.

**EU SaaS / managed: partial**

Notion offers EU data residency in Frankfurt and Ireland as a managed SaaS service. However, this applies only to eligible Enterprise customers and only to certain data categories; otherwise, hosting remains in the USA by default.

**Hybrid: indirect / not available**

A true hybrid model with an internal/local part and an external SaaS part is not described on the website.

**DPA / AVV: covered**

The website mentions a Data Processing Addendum; the help center pages explain that the terms of the Notion DPA apply to customer data and that the DPA includes EU and UK SCCs.

**No training: partial**

For Notion AI, the website states that contractual agreements with AI subprocessors prohibit the use of customer data to train their models. In addition, Notion mentions Zero Data Retention with LLM providers for Enterprise. However, for non-Enterprise, the website states retention with LLM providers of up to 30 days or less before deletion.

**Open source / transparency path: indirect / not available**

Open-source components or an open-source/self-hosting path are not indicated on the website. The only positive aspect is some transparency regarding subprocessors and the reference to model providers; a technical sovereignty path in the narrower sense is not documented.

**Data processing**

Notion describes a SaaS model with hosting on AWS. EU data residency is available for Enterprise; Frankfurt and Ireland are named. In this case, certain categories of customer data are stored at rest in the selected region. At the same time, Notion explicitly states that all data categories may continue to be stored and processed in the USA and other international locations, and that subprocessors also remain relevant. For Notion AI, the website names several AI subprocessors or model providers, contractual training prohibitions, Zero Data Retention for Enterprise, and up to 30 days of retention for non-Enterprise.

**Conclusion**

For users in the EU/EEA, Notion AI is not documented across the board as a tool that is fully hosted locally in the EU. However, there is a solid path to better GDPR usability through DPA/AVV, SCCs, and Enterprise data residency in the EU. Because this option is limited, does not cover all data flows, and the website describes continued processing in the USA and other international locations, the overall assessment for the European region is 'conditional'.

Notion documents GDPR-related measures, a privacy policy, a DPA/AV agreement, as well as an EU data residency option for Enterprise customers. For the EU/EEA area, privacy-compliant use is therefore generally possible, but only under conditions: EU data residency applies only to certain customer data categories and only for Enterprise with migration/setup; at the same time, Notion states that it continues to store and process all data categories in the USA and other international locations. This means that use is not consistently and automatically fully EU-local.

**Positive**

The website includes privacy notices, reference to a DPA/AV agreement, subprocessor information, reference to SCCs for data transfers, EU data residency with European AWS regions Frankfurt and Ireland, contractual exclusion of training by AI subprocessors, as well as certifications such as ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type 2.

**Negative**

According to the website, hosting remains in the USA by default unless migration is set up. According to the website, EU data residency is limited to Enterprise and does not cover all data categories or all product areas. Notion also states that it continues to store and process data in the USA and other international locations. An on-premise or self-hosting option is not indicated on the website.

**Server location**

For data residency in Europe, the website names AWS regions EU-Central-1 in Frankfurt and EU-West-1 in Ireland. According to the website, a workspace remains hosted in the USA by default until a migration takes place. In addition, Notion states that it continues to store and process all data categories in the USA and other international locations.
