Notes on reading this matrix
“Via DPA” means the service offers a Data Processing Agreement for enterprise users that addresses compliance — but you need to sign it.
“Enterprise” compliance features typically require paid enterprise tiers, not free or standard paid plans.
Australian Privacy Act compliance technically requires the overseas provider to handle data to a comparable standard. Most major Western providers satisfy this via their enterprise DPAs. Free tiers are more complex.
This matrix captures the state as of June 2026. The landscape changes rapidly — check current documentation for specific compliance needs.
