Is Google Gemini GDPR compliant?

Yes

Google · AI assistants

Yes. Google offers a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) for Google Gemini, 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: Confirmed; Google documents an EU data-residency option; confirm it is enabled for the account and workload in scope.
Default data training: Opt-out required; On consumer Gemini Apps (personal Google accounts), activity is used to improve Google services and a subset is human-reviewed unless Gemini Apps Activity is turned off.
Business-tier training: No by default; Google Workspace with Gemini does not use customer content to train models outside the customer's domain and content is not human-reviewed.

Practical risk: Personal Gemini accounts have human reviewers reading a sample of chats (kept up to 3 years even after you delete activity), so confidential work content typed into a personal account can be seen by reviewers.

How to make a decision

Check the precise account tier, written contract and intended data before approving Google Gemini. 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.
