Summary

PostHog has introduced a new option for businesses needing GDPR compliance by hosting PostHog Cloud in Europe, ensuring user data remains within the EU, specifically hosted in AWS's eu-central-1 region in Frankfurt, Germany. This new offering allows businesses to comply with GDPR without the maintenance required for self-hosted deployments and promises faster performance for European users. PostHog Cloud EU maintains all the features of PostHog, such as analytics and session recording, without any data transfer to the US, and is priced the same as the standard PostHog Cloud, offering the first 1 million events per month for free. However, users must still obtain user consent and comply with GDPR provisions like the right to be forgotten. Current PostHog customers can migrate their event data to the EU Cloud, but it's a time-consuming process with no current way to transfer other data types like insights or dashboards. Users are advised to complete a GDPR compliance checklist, including reviewing collected data, updating privacy policies, acquiring user consent, and establishing a process for data removal requests.
