Reviewer brief

As of 2 Nov 2026, CertReports holds 1 registry-verified row and 6 vendor-stated rows for Return Path, drawn from its trust centre (Drata) and the Data Privacy Framework list. Return Path is listed in the Data Privacy Framework list for EU-US Data Privacy Framework (Active: UK Extension Certification, SW-US Certification, EU-US Certification), dated 16 Apr 2019. Return Path states on its trust centre that it holds a SOC 2 Type II report, a data processing agreement, an ISO/IEC 27001 certificate, an ISO/IEC 27701 certificate, an ISO/IEC 42001 certificate and an CCPA / CPRA privacy notice, captured 21 Sep 2026; these are vendor statements, not independent confirmations. No public evidence was found for HIPAA, PCI DSS and FedRAMP as of 2 Nov 2026; that is a gap in the public record, not a finding of non-coverage, and the vendor can supply it under NDA.
