Welcome to Privacy & Compliance Week: Reflecting Values at Cloudflare’s Core

Cloudflare's Privacy & Compliance Week begins on December 7th, focusing on ways customers can ensure compliance with global privacy rules and laws. The company emphasizes trust as the foundation of its business, having made decisions that prioritize user privacy over potential profits. In 2013, Cloudflare sued the US government to challenge National Security Letters' infringement on due process principles. The company has also refused to participate in ad tech companies' data collection practices and has invested in technologies to keep users' private data secure. As part of this week's announcements, Cloudflare is deprecating its _cfduid cookie, giving users more control over data processing locations, and introducing the Data Localization Suite to help customers comply with increasingly complex local data processing requirements.
