Checked on 1 November 2026. Vendors change their pages, so check the date.
Less Annoying CRM does not publish the full text of its data processing agreement on a public page. The reference page explains how a customer gets or signs it, usually from inside the account. Article 28 of the GDPR still requires a written contract, so get it and keep a copy.
What we noted when we opened the page: GDPR help page, last updated 4 May 2026, linking to the vendor DPA; no signing process described. Says main servers are on AWS US-East (Virginia) with US backups. Legal entity not named.
A page that exists does not mean you are covered. Whether the agreement applies to you depends on your plan and on what you accepted, so record the decision yourself in your vendor list.
