So with GDPR coming up next year, we have several employees that are in the EU and with GDPR, we would have to make sure that the training for KnowBe4 is GDPR compliant. So I guess my question is, is KnowBe4 GDPR comliant or will be.

  Hi Donna,

  Thank you for your input and question about our GDPR training material and the associated compliance.  I have reached out to our Course Development Team to retrieve a thorough explanation for this question and I have emailed you directly.

  Hi Craig,

  Regarding your question of whether our GDPR-related training material is compliant, thus far, the General Data Protection Regulation does not include any specifications for training material (i.e., no specifics about what material to include, how long it should last, how often it should be completed, or what format it should be in). Rather, the regulation states that it requires “training and awareness”.  

  Therefore, our current GDPR training material is informative of the regulation, but the training content itself cannot ensure that your organization is compliant with the GDPR training requirement(s).

  I hope this helps! 

  Thank you!

  Lauren

  Hi. The question was around the platform itself, not the training material.  The knowbe4 console hosts user email addresses and names and private information.  Is the platform GDPR compliant?
