Private LLM hosting for companies in the UAE.
Dedicated NVIDIA DGX Spark hardware in EU-Central, run by a Czech company, for teams in the United Arab Emirates who want inference workloads on a dedicated, single-tenant machine rather than a shared US API. This is a statement about where the hardware sits and who has access to it, not a GDPR compliance claim.
Not legal advice, and not a GDPR compliance claim. The UAE is not an EU or EEA member. GDPR does not apply to a UAE-registered company by default. This page describes where GPUwerk's hardware sits and who operates it; it does not tell you whether GDPR, UAE federal data protection law, a free-zone framework such as the DIFC or ADGM regime, or some other law applies to your business. Confirm that with your own counsel before treating this as a compliance answer.
Why dedicated infrastructure matters, with or without a GDPR requirement
A company in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, or a free zone handling client contracts, financial records, or product source code has a plain reason to avoid routing prompts through a third-party US API: the data leaves the building and lands on shared, multi-tenant infrastructure operated by a vendor with its own terms and its own government's legal reach. A dedicated DGX Spark node in EU-Central, running a model you choose, keeps prompts and outputs on hardware assigned to you alone. That's an infrastructure and access-control decision, separate from any question about which privacy law governs your data.
Where does the data sit?
On a dedicated machine in EU-Central. Nothing routes through a US inference API or a shared multi-tenant pool.
Who operates it?
PRINT IT! SE, a Societas Europaea registered in Prague, Czech Republic. Company details at /legal/imprint.
Does UAE data protection law apply here?
Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021 on the Protection of Personal Data sets the UAE's federal baseline, and free zones such as the DIFC and ADGM run their own separate regimes. Which one applies to your company, and whether it governs your use of an EU-based processor, is a question for a lawyer familiar with the relevant regime, not this page.
Dedicated hardware vs. a shared API
The UAE is not an EU or EEA member, so GDPR does not bind a UAE company by default. If your company handles personal data belonging to EU residents, that data may fall under GDPR regardless of where your company is registered, but that is a fact-specific question this page cannot answer for you. Confirm that with your own counsel before treating any part of this page as a compliance determination. Separately from that question, latency to EU-Central from the Gulf is workable for most non-real-time workloads, and a single-tenant GPU node avoids the queueing and data-handling terms that come with a shared US API: your prompts don't sit alongside other tenants' traffic, and the model and hardware are yours for the duration of the reservation.

Questions we get from buyers in the UAE
Does GDPR apply to a company registered in the UAE?
Not by default. The UAE is not an EU or EEA member, so GDPR does not automatically apply to a UAE-registered company. The UAE has its own federal PDPL, plus separate free-zone regimes in the DIFC and ADGM. Whether GDPR applies to any specific processing you do depends on facts your own counsel should assess.
Why would a company in the UAE use an EU-hosted LLM provider?
Common reasons include EU clients or partners who ask where data is processed, and a preference for keeping prompts off US hyperscaler infrastructure and on dedicated, single-tenant hardware. Neither is a GDPR compliance claim on GPUwerk's part; it's a statement about where the hardware physically sits.
Is a DPA available?
Yes, a standard Art. 28 GDPR-style data processing agreement is published at /legal/dpa. Whether it fits your obligations under UAE federal or free-zone law is a question for your own counsel.
Is this legal advice?
No. This page describes GPUwerk's infrastructure and corporate structure only. It makes no claim about your compliance obligations under UAE law, GDPR, or any other framework.
