Strengthening Privacy and Trust with GDPR Compliance

 

We’re excited to share that YäRKEN is now fully GDPR compliant — a major step forward in our ongoing commitment to protect the data privacy of our customers, especially those across Europe. This achievement strengthens our ability to serve global organizations with confidence, transparency, and care.

Built for Global Business, Compliant with European Standards

As our platform continues to power IT financial management for businesses around the world, we recognize the importance of meeting the highest data protection standards — particularly those upheld by the European Union.

GDPR isn’t just a regulatory checkbox. For us, it reflects a broader promise to our customers: you own your data, you control it, and we’ll protect it.

Whether you’re managing SaaS investments across teams, planning IT budgets, or optimizing cloud spend across business units, YäRKEN ensures that every action taken on our platform respects your privacy, upholds compliance, and aligns with local data sovereignty preferences.

What GDPR Means at YäRKEN

Achieving compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) meant strengthening our policies, architecture, and operational processes in several ways:
  • Data sovereignty – Choose where your data is stored, including hosting within the EU.

  • User control – Support for data subject rights like access, rectification, and erasure.

  • Minimalism by design – We collect only what we need, and never more.

  • Transparency at every step – From data ingestion to reporting, you know what’s happening to your data and why.

 

How We Got There

This journey wasn’t about ticking boxes — it was about building trust. Here’s how we did it:

Audit & Assessment

We started by mapping every flow of personal data across our platform, identifying where data lived, who had access, and how it was used.

Technical & Process Enhancements

  • Introduced fine-grained access controls and data retention rules
  • Embedded encryption at rest and in transit
  • Integrated a single-tenant architecture for added isolation and peace of mind


Policy Updates

Our privacy policy, terms of service, and vendor agreements were updated to reflect GDPR requirements. We also implemented clear workflows for data subject access requests (DSARs).

Culture Shift

We trained every team — from engineering to customer success — to embed privacy-first thinking into everything we build, ship, and support.

Designed for the EU. Ready for Everywhere.

Whether you're a German enterprise optimizing infrastructure costs, a French public sector agency managing vendor spend, or a Nordic fintech team forecasting cloud workloads — GDPR compliance ensures YäRKEN meets your expectations for responsible data handling.

Our compliance doesn’t just make us a safer partner — it makes us a better one. With GDPR-aligned practices, we enable you to scale with trust, unlock cross-border collaboration, and stay ahead of evolving regulatory landscapes.

Trust Is a Feature — And It's Built In

With GDPR compliance joining our existing SOC 2 controls, Azure AD integration, and single-tenant deployments, YäRKEN now offers one of the most privacy-resilient ITFM platforms on the market.
