Q: Limitations and GDPR
If I upgrade from Level 4 to Level 5, are the unlimited records retained? Or, by changing the license, do the record limits apply again?
With the new EU & US Data Residency feature, how close are we to GDPR compliance?

Thanks for reaching out!
1. License Upgrade & Unlimited Records
If you originally purchased your deal during our very first AppSumo campaign, your unlimited records benefit is grandfathered and retained when upgrading across tiers.
2. GDPR Compliance & Data Security
While NoCodeBackend does not hold a formal third-party GDPR certification or compliance license, our platform and infrastructure are built following industry security best practices that align with core GDPR principles:
-EU Data Residency (Data Sovereignty): With our EU Central (Frankfurt, Germany) region, your account credentials and databases can be hosted entirely within the European Union, preventing unauthorized cross-border transfers.
-Right to Erasure (Full Account Deletion): You have complete self-service control to permanently delete your account, databases, authentication sessions, and user records at any time.
-Data Portability & Exports: You can download complete database snapshots and data exports anytime to ensure you always own and can freely export your data.
-Security in Transit & at Rest: All API and dashboard communications are strictly encrypted in transit via TLS/HTTPS. Sensitive credentials and secret keys are stored securely using strong encryption (AES-256) and hashing algorithms.
-Access Control & Row-Level Security (RLS): Built-in RLS policies and scoped API keys let you restrict table and row access strictly to authorized users and tenants.
In short, while we don't market a formal compliance badge, we provide the regional hosting, data ownership tools, and security controls you need to build privacy-conscious, GDPR-friendly applications.
