Global Operations, Global Obligations
Food manufacturers rarely operate in a single jurisdiction. Your suppliers span continents. Your facilities cross borders. Your customers are global. That means your data protection obligations are global too — and so is ours.
Our compliance framework addresses major international data protection regulations so your legal and IT teams can move forward with confidence.
EU: GDPR Compliance
For food companies with European operations, employees, suppliers, or customers, we provide:
- Data Processing Agreements meeting Article 28 standards
- EU-approved Standard Contractual Clauses for cross-border data transfers
- Data subject request responses within 10 business days
- Lawful basis documentation for all processing activities
California: CCPA/CPRA Compliance
For companies subject to California privacy law, our commitments include:
- We do not sell personal information
- We do not share data for cross-context behavioral advertising
- We support consumer rights to access, delete, and correct their information
- We maintain the required contractual provisions for service providers
Data Transfer Safeguards
Moving data across borders requires specific legal mechanisms. We rely on:
- Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission (2021 version)
- Encryption of all data in transit and at rest
- Access controls limiting data exposure to authorized personnel only
- Transfer impact assessments as required by applicable law
Data Lifecycle Commitments
We maintain clear commitments throughout the data lifecycle:
- Deletion: All customer data deleted within 30 days of termination
- Certification: Written deletion certificates provided upon request
- Breach notification: Affected customers notified within 72 hours of confirmed incidents
- Subprocessor transparency: 30-day advance notice of any subprocessor changes, with published lists of all third-party processors
Why This Matters for Food Companies
Food manufacturers face a unique intersection of regulatory requirements. Beyond data protection laws, you’re also subject to food safety regulations (FDA, FSMA, EU Food Safety Authority) that impose their own data handling requirements. When AI agents are processing your food safety records, the compliance picture gets complex fast.
Our framework is designed to sit cleanly alongside your existing regulatory obligations — not create new ones. Your compliance team shouldn’t have to become AI governance experts to work with us.
