What it is

The policy discloses that personal data may be transferred internationally, including to the United States, and states that HubSpot uses Standard Contractual Clauses as a transfer mechanism for EU data.

ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

This provision establishes Standard Contractual Clauses as the primary mechanism for cross-border data transfers out of the EEA, which requires that a transfer impact assessment be conducted and documented for organizations subject to GDPR requirements.

Interpretive note: The policy does not specify whether transfer impact assessments have been conducted or whether the current EU SCCs (2021 version) are in use, which are material compliance details not determinable from the policy text alone.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Under this provision, personal data collected from EU, UK, or other non-US users may be transferred to the United States and other countries, with HubSpot relying on Standard Contractual Clauses as the stated legal transfer mechanism.

What you can do

⚠️ These actions may provide transparency or partial mitigation but may not fully address the underlying issue. Effectiveness varies by jurisdiction and individual circumstances.

ConductAtlas Analysis

Institutional analysis (Compliance & governance intelligence)

1. REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: This provision engages GDPR Chapter V governing international transfers, the UK GDPR equivalent transfer provisions, and guidance from the European Data Protection Board on SCCs and transfer impact assessments. Following the Schrems II decision, SCC reliance requires a documented transfer impact assessment. The Irish DPC and UK ICO are the relevant supervisory authorities. 2. GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. SCC-based transfers are a recognized mechanism but require accompanying transfer impact assessments, particularly for transfers to the United States, which may require evaluation under US surveillance law standards. 3. JURISDICTION FLAGS: EU and EEA organizations using HubSpot must ensure their data processing agreements with HubSpot incorporate current EU SCCs. UK organizations must confirm UK IDTA or addendum equivalents are in place. Brazil (LGPD) and Canada (PIPEDA) may also create transfer compliance obligations depending on user location. 4. CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Procurement teams should request HubSpot's current DPA and confirm it incorporates the 2021 European Commission standard contractual clauses. Transfer impact assessments should be documented for US-bound transfers as part of vendor due diligence records. 5. COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Legal teams should verify that their HubSpot DPA is current and that transfer impact assessments have been conducted and documented. UK-based organizations should confirm whether the UK IDTA or addendum has been executed with HubSpot.
