Frequently Asked Questions

How does the tool determine which laws apply?▾
It analyzes your website for geographic signals: TLD (e.g., .de for Germany), hreflang tags, HTML language attribute, phone number country codes, and international keywords. Each signal maps to a region, and each region maps to applicable privacy laws.
Does this replace legal advice?▾
No. This tool provides a technical analysis of likely applicable laws based on observable website signals. Actual legal obligations depend on many factors including your business structure, customer locations, and data processing activities. Consult a privacy lawyer for definitive guidance.
What does enforcement risk mean?▾
High: Active enforcement authority with significant fines (e.g., GDPR, CCPA). Medium: Established law with growing enforcement. Low: Newer law or limited enforcement history.
Why does my .com site show US laws?▾
A .com TLD maps to the US region by default. If your site also shows hreflang tags for European languages or uses international keywords, additional laws like GDPR may also apply.
What are data collection signals?▾
These are indicators that your website collects user data: analytics scripts, advertising pixels, forms, login systems, e-commerce checkout, and newsletter signups. More data collection generally means more compliance obligations.
Can a website be subject to multiple privacy laws?▾
Yes. Most websites that serve international visitors are subject to multiple privacy laws simultaneously. A global SaaS company might need to comply with GDPR, CCPA, LGPD, PIPEDA, and others depending on where their users are located.
How can I reduce my compliance burden?▾
Use privacy-first tools that minimize data collection (cookieless analytics like Zenovay), implement a single high-standard privacy policy (GDPR as baseline), and use a consent management platform that supports multiple jurisdictions.
