AgentenTrust 2.0 · EU & governance evidence

Trust, privacy and control evidence for n8n Agents

Direct answer: AgentenCode currently documents 4 of 36 normalized trust controls for this profile. Missing fields remain Unknown and are never automatically interpreted as “no”.

EU AI ActEvidence context only. AgentenCode does not infer legal applicability or compliance from individual product controls.

GDPRPrivacy and security signals are documented field by field. Data residency alone is not a compliance or transfer assessment.

Privacy contextPrivacy & data0 of 8 documentedResidency, training, retention, DPA, subprocessors and processing scope.

Security contextSecurity & access4 of 10 documentedEncryption, SSO, SCIM, RBAC, roles and credential handling.

Human controlHuman control0 of 10 documentedApproval, oversight, permissions and stop or rollback controls.

TraceabilityAudit & traceability0 of 8 documentedAudit logs, APIs, SIEM, observability, tracing and activity history.

Important: these numbers show evidence coverage, not a product rating. 0 of 10 means that no field-level public evidence is stored for those ten controls in the current dataset. It does not mean the product lacks those capabilities.

Primary source ↗

AgentenCode treats this page as a reference profile rather than a ranking. Product facts are separated from editorial classification, and the profile is tied to a specific verification date. If a capability is not backed by sufficiently precise public evidence, it remains unknown instead of being inferred from marketing language or from similar products.

How to read the evidence

The field-level evidence layer records a value, a scope, a confidence level, a verification date and one or more primary sources. Scope matters: an enterprise-only security feature must not be generalized to every plan or deployment surface. The same rule applies to hosting, privacy, audit and protocol claims.

AgentenCode also keeps Unknown distinct from false. A missing claim means the public dataset does not currently contain sufficiently precise evidence for that field. A negative value is used only when a reliable primary source explicitly documents a restriction or non-availability.

Decision context

Provider and category

n8n Agents is documented under Automation and is associated with n8n. Category labels help navigation but do not replace product-specific evidence.

Verification status

The public profile is marked editorially reviewed and was last checked on September 30, 2026.

Trust coverage

4 of 36 normalized trust controls currently have field-level public evidence. The remaining controls are not treated as negative findings.

Source-first use

For procurement, security or legal decisions, use the linked primary sources and verify the plan, region and configuration that apply to your organization.

Capabilities, strengths and deployment checks for n8n Agents

What to verify before adoption

Self-hosting und Cloud getrennt bewerten. Treat undocumented controls as Unknown and verify the exact plan, region and deployment scope.
Credential-Rechte begrenzen. Treat undocumented controls as Unknown and verify the exact plan, region and deployment scope.
Fehlerpfade und menschliche Freigaben definieren. Treat undocumented controls as Unknown and verify the exact plan, region and deployment scope.

Editorial boundary: The use-case and strength descriptions are product-specific editorial context based on the stored profile. Trust, privacy and governance statements are only presented as facts when field-level primary-source evidence exists.

Verified history

The public history layer records only confirmed profile changes and verification events. Monitoring signals are not published as product facts until they have been reviewed.
