Netherlands check for social media scheduling
Useful if you run a business in the Netherlands: what each point means and how many tools meet it.
Support in Dutch
You would rather ask a question in Dutch, to someone who knows how things work in the Netherlands.
2 of 8 tools
App in Dutch
An app in Dutch is quicker to use and avoids mistakes, also for colleagues who read less English.
0 of 8 tools
Data in the EU
A scheduler stores your posts, statistics and access to your accounts, and often customer messages from your inbox too. If that is in the EU, you have less to check about transfers.
3 of 8 tools
Data processing agreement
If you reply to comments and private messages through the tool, or manage accounts for clients, the vendor processes personal data for you and you need a data processing agreement.
5 of 8 tools
Company in the Netherlands
A Dutch company falls under Dutch law. For some businesses that matters, for example in a dispute.
