Post-Brexit, UK manufacturers prefer UK data residency. VynDeal offers London (eu-west-2) hosting, ICO registration, signed DPA aligned with UK GDPR and DPA 2018.
Post-Brexit, UK manufacturers face a more complex compliance picture. UK GDPR (the post-Brexit retention) sits alongside the Data Protection Act 2018, with cross-border flows governed by adequacy decisions and SCCs. Many UK manufacturers prefer UK data residency rather than EU residency to avoid even theoretical adequacy-decision risk.
VynDeal offers London (eu-west-2) AWS region hosting for UK-only data residency. ICO registered. Signed DPA aligned with the UK GDPR and Data Protection Act 2018. Cross-border transfers (when a UK manufacturer exports to the EU or US) are governed by the relevant adequacy decisions and Standard Contractual Clauses.
For UK manufacturers exporting to the EU: data flows from UK to EU are protected by the EU's adequacy decision for the UK (current as of 2025). For UK manufacturers selling into the US: VynDeal's SCCs cover the UK→US flow, with a Transfer Impact Assessment provided to support the controller's due diligence.
Built specifically for British manufacturers facing post-Brexit compliance complexity: ICO-aligned breach notification, DPA 2018 lawful basis tracking, UK GDPR-specific subject access request handling, separate UK and EU sub-processor lists for customers operating in both regions.
