WatchEU-hosted & GDPR-first
A Danish company, data kept in the EU and a DPA on request — compliance built in, not bolted on.
Alternative
A GDPR-first Better Stack alternative
Better Stack bundles uptime with logs and incident tooling. If you mainly need reliable uptime, SSL, status pages and SLA reports — EU-hosted and simple — WatchControl is a focused alternative.
