Frequently asked questions

What is the best European alternative to Buffer?
So far our directory lists one European alternative to Buffer: Publer.
Is Buffer GDPR-compliant?
Unusually, it is independent and founder-owned after buying out its investors, yet remains a US business based in San Francisco. For a US company, the EU-US Data Privacy Framework covers transfers only if Buffer is certified under it; otherwise they need standard contractual clauses and a transfer impact assessment, and US laws such as the CLOUD Act can reach the data either way.
