Daily Control (Dataware): sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Daily Control is the online screening platform of Dataware Intelligence SA, a Swiss provider of data for anti-money-laundering (AML), counter-terrorist-financing and know-your-customer (KYC) checks. It combines databases of politically exposed persons, sanctions and targeted adverse media with tools for screening, batch screening, automated monitoring and case management, plus a mobile app for scanning ID documents. It is aimed at regulated entities such as banks, insurers and law firms and is available through a web interface or an API. Dataware was formerly called SGR Compliance.

Dataware is headquartered in Lugano, Switzerland: not an EU member, but an EFTA country with an EU adequacy decision. Its privacy policies follow the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection and take the GDPR into account. The company does not say where the platform is hosted, so ask about the hosting location and sub-processors. No parent company outside Switzerland is named, and no self-hosting option is described.

Why digital sovereignty matters with Daily Control (Dataware)

Daily Control (Dataware) is headquartered in Switzerland and falls under Swiss law, including the revised Swiss data protection act. Switzerland is not an EU member, but the European Commission recognises its level of data protection as adequate. Its Swiss headquarters does not by itself bring it under US legislation such as the CLOUD Act.

Daily Control (Dataware) hosts data in Switzerland only. Switzerland is not part of the EU or the EEA, so the GDPR does not apply there directly; the European Commission does recognise Swiss data protection as adequate, so personal data can go there without extra safeguards. Our model therefore scores it between EU hosting and hosting outside Europe. If you require strictly EU hosting, take this into account.

Daily Control (Dataware) is closed source and hosted by the vendor. The encryption keys and the runtime sit with the vendor and switching requires data migration. Ask about bring-your-own-key, export options and open standards.

What this means for your organisation depends on your whole stack and context. The free assessment weighs Daily Control (Dataware) together with your other vendors and gives a total score, a heatmap and the main risk drivers.
