Is Gemini Code Assist GDPR compliant?

Yes

Google · Coding

Yes. Google offers a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) for Gemini Code Assist, the baseline GDPR control when a vendor processes personal data on your behalf.

What we checked

This assessment separates the consumer product from any business plan. It uses the vendor documents linked below; an unverified item is not a pass.

Data Processing Agreement
Confirmed
Google publishes a DPA. A DPA is necessary but does not replace your own lawful-basis, DPIA and transfer assessment.
EU data residency
Not verified
No EU-residency option was confirmed in the sources reviewed for this profile.
Default data training
Opt-out required
For individuals (free tier), prompts, code and output are collected to improve Google products, with human review, and disconnected copies stored up to 18 months.
Business-tier training
No by default
Standard and Enterprise: Google does not use your data to train its models without your permission, and prompts and responses are handled statelessly (not stored).
Practical risk: On Standard and Enterprise, Gemini Code Assist is not trained on without permission, is stateless, and carries SOC 1/2/3 and ISO 27001 with VPC Service Controls. The free Individual tier is different: code and prompts are collected to improve Google products with human review and up to 18-month retention.

How to make a decision

Check the precise account tier, written contract and intended data before approving Gemini Code Assist. A security certification, DPA or setting can apply to only part of a vendor's service. Keep the source links with your supplier review and revisit them when the vendor changes its terms.
