MadCap Software and GDPR Compliance
Our Commitment to You and the Protection of Your Data

Protecting our customers’ information and their users’ privacy is extremely important to us. As a provider of both desktop-based applications and cloud-based SaaS solutions, we are entrusted with some of our customers’ most valuable data, and we’ve set high standards for security.
