Frequently Asked Questions

Why switch from GitHub Actions to a European alternative?

Is GitHub Actions GDPR compliant?
As a US-based company, GitHub Actions may transfer and process your data in the United States. While they may have GDPR compliance measures, your data could still be subject to US laws including the CLOUD Act.
