About
Typeform is a Barcelona-based form and survey platform founded in 2012, known for its conversational, one-question-at-a-time interface that significantly improves completion rates compared to traditional forms. While incorporated in Spain, Typeform's data infrastructure uses US cloud providers (AWS), which means response data may be processed outside the EU under standard SCCs. It offers advanced logic branching, payment integration via Stripe, quiz modes, calculator fields, and 500+ integrations. Typeform is the global standard for conversion-optimised forms and is widely used for lead capture, NPS surveys, and customer feedback. EU teams requiring guaranteed EU data residency should review Typeform's current DPA or consider EU-native alternatives.

What does Typeform do?
Typeform is conversational forms and surveys — a spanish alternative to google forms and surveymonkey. It is listed under marketing and saas on EU Alts because its core functionality serves teams looking for a European marketing tool with EU data residency, typically as a switch away from well-known US incumbents.
Is Typeform a good European marketing alternative?
Typeform is a fit for European businesses evaluating marketing options where data residency and GDPR alignment matter — typical buyers include EU-based SaaS teams, public-sector projects, regulated industries (healthcare, finance, legal), and any organisation that needs to demonstrate that customer data does not leave the EU. It also overlaps with saas use cases.
Is Typeform GDPR compliant?
Typeform is headquartered in Barcelona, Spain and falls under EU jurisdiction, so it likely processes user data under the GDPR by default. Customer data processing is supervised by Spain's data protection authority, the Agencia Española de Protección de Datos (AEPD). EU Alts has not yet independently verified Typeform's ownership structure or hosting location, so we can't yet confirm its exposure to the US CLOUD Act the way we can for verified entries.
How do teams switch from well-known US incumbents to Typeform?
Most teams considering a move from well-known US incumbents to Typeform are drawn to its EU headquarters and marketing workflow fit. EU Alts hasn't yet verified Typeform's ownership and hosting facts, so treat any CLOUD Act or Schrems II conclusions as provisional until verification is complete. Plan a migration in stages regardless: export your data from the US incumbent, pilot Typeform with a small team, then move the rest once integration coverage is confirmed.
Where is Typeform based?
Typeform is headquartered in Barcelona, Spain. The company was founded in 2012. Its main website is https://www.typeform.com.
