GDPR Suppression Settings

Last Updated: April 14, 2022

In order to help our customers comply with the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), we've added EU suppression settings to the API section of your Clearbit Platform.  

Enrichment Suppression Settings

When enabled, Enrichment suppression prevents people with EU location data or with unknown location data from being returned in-person enrichment. Emails of people that fall into these categories will return as Not Found, but Company data will be unaffected.

❗Disclaimer: This is a global setting that will affect results from Enrichment API and legacy integrations. Please reach out to support@clearbit.com to learn if you are using a legacy integration.

Prospector Suppression Settings

When enabled, Prospector suppression prevents people with EU location data or with unknown location data from being returned as a result in Prospector. This is particularly useful when prospecting into multi-national companies, where employees may not be located in the companies country of operation. Please keep in mind that no data set is perfect, and while we make our absolute best effort to ensure our location data is accurate, people move and data changes.
