Does using Spendesk mean a non-EU transfer?

No. Spendesk SAS keeps the data inside the European Union: no structural transfer to document under Chapter V.

What to write in your Article 30 record

Purpose: Payments. Categories of personal data: identity, contact details, financial data. Recipient: Spendesk SAS. Transfer: European Union. Retention: aligned with the contract or the account lifetime, whichever is shorter.

How RoPA Pilot handles it

RoPA Pilot detects Spendesk from the domain name of the tab — never from page content — and pre-fills the record above in one click. The extension flags the record if the transfer mechanism is missing or unverified.
