I am not a lawyer, but a quick Google search suggests the answer is no, as the legislation applies based on the data subject being in the EU, not the processor - see for example "Why non-EU companies should care" in https://econsultancy.com/blog/69282-how-should-non-eu-businesses-prepare-for-the-gdpr Ed _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
