Monitor Snowflake compliance pages

Cloud data platform โ€” data warehousing, lakes, Snowpark, Cortex AI, Streamlit apps, and data sharing across AWS, Azure, and GCP.

Snowflake publishes several compliance and legal pages that change over time. Under GDPR Article 28, data controllers using Snowflake as a processor must continuously verify that "sufficient guarantees" remain in place โ€” which means tracking changes to these pages as they happen. Below are the 4 most relevant pages, what typically changes on each, and ready-to-paste monitoring prompts.
