When the EU region was announced[1] last month they weren't Safe Harbor compliant (yet). Has that changed?

You're right, I did a bit of a mic mac there.

They are still not compliant with Safe Harbor in the US. Anyway since our company is located in France, the french privacy law allow us to use a hosting located in EU (instead of a US SafeHarbor one). Heroku did the EU launch just for this.

No. "It does not currently address data residency or jurisdiction concerns. You should assume that some portions of your app and its data will be in, or pass through, datacenters located in the US."
