  Cause I would start my business and create a website with you and it’s so important know where your data are managed. I live in Italy and we in europe have a GDPR, If I choose “EU west” it’s aligned to europe privacy pollice right?

  We have some details about GDPR on this page which I suggest reviewing: https://wordpress.com/support/your-site-and-the-gdpr/ This isn’t a replacement for legal counsel but it does outline some additional considerations to help you remain compliant. You can enable these items regardless of the data center selection.
