Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to comply with the EU AI Act if I use HubSpot AI?
If you use HubSpot AI features to interact with EU-based contacts or customers, EU AI Act Article 50 requires transparency disclosures. GDPR also requires you to disclose AI processing in your privacy notices. Aegis Firma generates all required disclosures and tracks your obligations.
Does HubSpot take care of GDPR compliance for me?
HubSpot provides a Data Processing Agreement and some GDPR tools. It does not generate AI-specific GDPR disclosures, EU AI Act transparency notices, or manage your AI risk assessment obligations. Those are your responsibilities as the data controller — Aegis Firma handles them.
