Common mistakes
- 1Not selecting EU data residency when processing EU user data, resulting in US data processing by default
- 2Sending personal identifiers (email, name) as user properties when anonymous tracking would suffice
- 3Syncing Amplitude cohorts to advertising platforms without verifying advertising consent status
Compliance considerations
Collects user events, device data, and session information. Amplitude offers EU data residency (AWS Frankfurt). The SDK can operate in anonymous mode without user identification. Analytics consent is required for behavioural tracking. When used as a CDP with audience syncing to advertising platforms, advertising consent may also be required for those downstream uses.
