Question 1

How long does the checker take?

Accepted Answer

Under a minute. It asks up to seven multiple-choice questions and gives you an instant result — often fewer questions if your answer is clear early on.

Question 2

Do I need to sign up?

Accepted Answer

No. The checker is free and runs entirely in your browser. You only create an account if you decide to set up representation.

Question 3

Is this legal advice?

Accepted Answer

No. The checker gives general guidance based on the Article 3(2) and Article 27 GDPR triggers. For a binding assessment of your specific situation, consult qualified counsel.

Question 4

What does it base the answer on?

Accepted Answer

The two Article 3(2) triggers — offering goods or services to people in the EU and monitoring their behaviour — plus the public-authority exemption and the narrow occasional-processing carve-out.
