GDPR-Compliant Status Page
A status page that keeps your data in the EU.
Most status page providers store product and incident data in US data centres, requiring Standard Contractual Clauses and complex legal review. If your team needs EU data residency for core status-page data by default, Upwarden is built for you.

Common pain points — and how Upwarden solves them
Transatlantic data transfers
Problem: US-hosted providers require SCCs, TIAs, and ongoing legal review to remain GDPR-compliant.
Solution: Upwarden core infrastructure runs on Hetzner in Germany. Email delivery and billing subprocessors are listed clearly in the privacy docs.
DPA availability
Problem: Many providers require a sales call or enterprise plan before providing a DPA.
Solution: Upwarden's DPA is downloadable directly from the website. No sales call needed.
Cookie compliance
Problem: Most monitoring tools use analytics and tracking cookies that require consent banners.
Solution: Upwarden uses a single essential session cookie. No tracking cookies, no consent banner needed.
Unclear sub-processor chains
Problem: It's often unclear which third parties process your data and where.
Solution: Upwarden's sub-processor list is public: Hetzner (Germany) for hosting, Resend (US, email only), Polar.sh (EU, billing).
