Dif3r3nt attaches great importance to your privacy. We process personal data carefully, transparently and in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Privacy is built into our design, not added afterwards.

Appropriate agreements have been made with these parties and processing takes place within the EU wherever possible.
