 * ✅. I have now updated the license info in the Infobox. Thanks for pointing that out, and for providing a source. --Dodi 8238 (talk) 18:18, 12 January 2018 (UTC)

Wire is a swiss company, that follows swiss law, not the European Unions law
Switzerland, where Wire Swiss is located, is not within the European Union, but outside. Wire may follow the EU laws, but have first to follow the Swiss laws, which are stricter. I would rephrase the sentence

″It is hosted inside the European Union and protected by European Union laws.″

into

"It is hosted in Switzerland, and protected by the Swiss laws, and follows the European Union laws of privacy". — Preceding unsigned comment added by Twen (talk • contribs) 14:02, 6 February 2018 (UTC)
