Lindy is controlled from a country outside the EU and lacks confirmed EU data storage: processing effectively takes place in a third country. That makes the tool unsuitable for sensitive personal data without additional safeguards. For non-personal data (drafts, public material) it is usually fine.

What is needed to use Lindy in a GDPR-safe way?
Sign a data processing agreement (DPA) if the tool processes personal data on your behalf, minimise the personal data you feed in, and check the vendor's sub-processors. See our DPA guide for the steps.
Our assessment is based on verified data about vendor, storage and certifications (2026). GDPR compliance also depends on how you use the tool. This is guidance, not legal advice. See How we review.
