Digital Services Act

The purpose of the EU's DSA is to ensure that consumers and their fundamental rights are protected when engaging online, and to establish a transparent and accountable framework for online platforms.

Below you can find how Stack Exchange, Inc. (“Stack”) users and authorities in the EU can contact Stack in compliance with the DSA.

Single Point of Contact

In accordance with the DSA, Stack is required to designate a single point of contact for EU authorities and another for EU users. Please note that such communications should be provided in English or include an English translation.

EU Authorities (the European Commission, the European Board for Digital Services, and EU Member State authorities)

EU authorities can contact Stack's designated point of contact by submitting an email to dsa-legal@stackoverflow.com in accordance with our Legal Questions and Requests for User Information.

Users

Users can contact Stack's designated point of contact by submitting Stack's Public Network contact form and selecting the Trust & Safety contact support option.

Illegal Content Reporting

In accordance with the DSA, Stack is required to provide a means for users to report directly to us if they find content that is, or is reasonably believed to be, illegal in the EU. Users can report expected illegal content using Stack's Public Network contact form and selecting the Trust & Safety contact support option.

Transparency Information

Stack has calculated its average monthly active recipients (“AMAR”) within the European Union, as defined in the DSA, across its public network of Stack Exchange sites during the six month period from July 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023 to be less than 10 million.

Stack will review and update its AMAR, in accordance with the DSA's requirements, every six (6) months.
