Stella Connect and GDPR: Privacy by Design

In May 2018, Europe’s new General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) comes into force, replacing the 1995 EU Data Protection Directive. GDPR unifies data protection rules across Europe and strengthens the rights of EU citizens.

In this document, we detail our approach and philosophy around GDPR compliance and lay out the reasons why you can be 100% confident partnering with Stella Connect in this new era of consumer privacy.

Why We Welcome the Introduction of GDPR

At Stella Connect, privacy has always been one of our core principles.
​
We are not an analytics or advertising company and we have never have been in the business of selling consumer data. We take privacy and security into account during every step of our development process and we have had to make no technical changes to our platform to become GDPR compliant. We have introduced the required policies and procedures to help our clients remain in compliance while using our platform.

Why You Can Feel 100% Confident Partnering with Stella Connect

The policies and practices we have in place around GDPR have been stress-tested by many of the world’s largest and most privacy-conscious companies. Without exception, we have passed these rigorous InfoSec audits, underlining our foundational commitment to privacy and data protection.
