What we’re doing

#1

We have a data protection core team comprised of senior members of the Legal, Data, Security, and Architecture teams, dedicated to ensuring that Twilio is GDPR‑compliant

#2

We updated our terms for GDPR. We’ve made a new addendum part of our Terms of Service, which reflects GDPR standards.

#3

For every new product and enhancement, we proactively apply the Data Protection by Design principles.
