Frequently asked questions
What is the best European alternative to Short.io?
So far our directory lists one European alternative to Short.io: EU.PE.
Is Short.io GDPR-compliant?
The company behind it is registered in Wilmington, Delaware, so the service and its click data sit under US jurisdiction. For a US company, the EU-US Data Privacy Framework covers transfers only if Short.io 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.
