Choose EU or UK Data Hosting at Sign-Up — EU data residency for employee app and HR data

Sign-up now asks each new company where its data must be stored: the United States, or the European Union or United Kingdom. The answer starts from where the visitor is signing up from, and it can be changed. Companies that choose the European Union or United Kingdom get a workspace in our data center in Ireland, which our team sets up for them. Nothing is created in the United States first. The person who signed up gets a copy of the request and then an email with a link to choose a password and sign in. This helps organizations with GDPR or data residency requirements start on the right region from day one, without moving data between regions later.

Use case: An HR director at a retail chain in Germany signs up, chooses European Union or United Kingdom, and receives a link to sign in to the company's new workspace hosted in Ireland.
