Cross-Border Data Transfers

High severity

What it is

Your personal data may be transferred to and processed in the United States, which has different (and in some cases weaker) data protection standards than the EU, UK, or other countries where you may live.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

If you are based in the EU or UK, your personal data is transferred to the United States for processing, which requires Stability AI to rely on mechanisms like Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or the UK-US Data Bridge to ensure your data remains legally protected.

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.
  • Delete Your Data
    Within 30 days
    EU and UK users concerned about cross-border transfers can email privacy@stability.ai to request details of the transfer mechanisms in place for their data and, if unsatisfied, request deletion of their personal data under GDPR Art. 17.

Why it matters (compliance & risk perspective)

EU and UK users have strong legal protections for their personal data, but transferring data to the US requires specific legal safeguards that may not always be clearly disclosed or robustly implemented.

View original clause language
Your information may be transferred to, and maintained on, computers located outside of your state, province, country, or other governmental jurisdiction where the data protection laws may differ from those of your jurisdiction. If you are located outside the United States and choose to provide information to us, please note that we transfer the data, including personal data, to the United States and process it there.

Institutional analysis (Compliance & legal intelligence)

REGULATORY FRAMEWORK: GDPR Chapter V (Arts. 44-49) governs international data transfers and requires an adequacy decision, SCCs (Commission Implementing Decision 2021/914), or other appropriate safeguards. UK GDPR requires reliance on the UK-US Data Bridge (effective October 2023) or UK IDTA for transfers to US processors. The Schrems II decision (C-311/18) mandates transfer impact assessments (TIAs) for SCCs. FTC enforcement of the EU-US Data Privacy Framework is conducted by the FTC and Department of Transportation.
