GDPR Compliant Document AI
AI-powered document analysis with zero data transfers. Your files never leave your device — full compliance, zero risk.
The GDPR Problem With Cloud AI Tools
Most AI document tools require uploading files to cloud servers — often located outside the UK or EU. Under GDPR, that creates serious compliance headaches.
Every upload is a data transfer. Every transfer requires a legal basis. And if those servers are in the US or elsewhere, you’re dealing with international transfer mechanisms, adequacy decisions, and potential regulatory exposure.
GDPR risks with cloud AI tools:
- International data transfers — Many AI providers process data in the US, requiring SCCs or other safeguards
- Third-party processing — Uploading client data means the AI provider becomes a data processor
- Data retention uncertainty — How long is your data stored? Is it used for model training?
- Breach notification complexity — Another vendor in the chain means another potential breach source
For lawyers, auditors, and compliance professionals, this isn’t theoretical risk — it’s a real barrier to adopting AI tools that could transform your workflow.
Local Processing: GDPR Compliance by Design
SecureThink eliminates the compliance headache entirely. Everything runs locally on your Mac — no uploads, no transfers, no third-party processors.
When data never leaves your device, there’s no international transfer to justify, no processor agreement to negotiate, and no additional vendor to audit.
How SecureThink supports GDPR compliance:
- Zero data transfers — Files are processed entirely on your local machine
- No third-party processing — You remain the sole controller of your data
- Full data sovereignty — Your documents stay within your jurisdiction
- Simplified DPIAs — No complex risk assessments for international transfers
- Air-gapped capability — Works completely offline after initial setup
This isn’t compliance theatre — it’s privacy by design. The simplest way to comply with data protection rules is to never transfer the data in the first place.
