About noCRM.io

noCRM.io is headquartered in Paris, France, founded in 2014, and is part of Groupe Positive. Data is hosted on AWS Ireland with backups in AWS France, encrypted at rest, and the service is audited yearly for security. As a French-owned platform under EU jurisdiction, it offers full GDPR compliance as a native European alternative to Salesforce and HubSpot.
Why choose noCRM.io over Pipedrive?
The decisive argument is data jurisdiction. Pipedrive is headquartered in US, which means personal data processed through it can be subject to non-EU legal regimes — the US CLOUD Act, FISA 702, or similar laws depending on the provider. After the 2020 Schrems II ruling, EU organisations must carry out a transfer impact assessment for every such data flow.
noCRM.io removes that overhead. As a France-based provider, it operates natively under GDPR, and data stays inside the EU/EEA by default. For regulated sectors — health, public administration, finance — that's not a nice-to-have but a requirement. For everyone else, it's concentration-risk insurance: you avoid depending on a single non-EU jurisdiction that can change the rules without warning.
