Bulgaria compliance
Internal Reporting Channel for Bulgaria
Compliant with Bulgaria's Protection of Whistleblowers Act. Secure reporting channel with electronic register.
Built for EU Whistleblower Directive 2019/1937 and GDPR: encryption in transit and at rest, EU data residency, and a reporting channel designed so designated persons can meet statutory deadlines.
Protection of Whistleblowers Act · Transposition of EU Directive 2019/1937
This page is for organisations under Bulgaria’s Protection of Whistleblowers Act (transposing Directive 2019/1937). It is not legal advice.
Since 4 April 2023 Bulgarian entities with 50+ employees must provide an internal reporting channel.
Controls CISOs, DPOs and general counsel can verify
- Row Level Security
- Organisation data is isolated in Postgres with row-level access rules. Officers only see cases for companies they are authorised to handle.
- Mandatory TOTP MFA
- Administrators and designated persons must enrol an authenticator app (Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator or Authy) before using the dashboard.
- Immutable consent & audit trail
- Clickwrap acceptance of Terms, Privacy Policy and DPA is stored with timestamp, version and client metadata — not a silent checkbox.
- Private evidence vault
- Report attachments sit in private object storage, downloaded only by authorised officers over authenticated sessions — not public URLs.
Scope in Bulgaria
- Employers with 50+ employees
- Public sector bodies
- Regulated sector organisations
Key requirements
Bulgarian law requires internal reporting channels, confidentiality protection and compliance with EU-standard procedural requirements.
QReportly for Bulgarian organisations
Bulgarian-language interface, EU hosting, automatic register, free legal templates, designated-officer email notifications and multi-organisation support. From €24/month.
How report data is handled
Case content is processed only to operate the internal reporting channel for your organisation.
We do not use whistleblowing reports for advertising or product marketing. Your organisation remains the controller of the cases. Officers open files only after authentication; dashboard users must complete TOTP. Attachments stay in a private vault, not on public links.
Encryption and EU hosting
- TLS 1.3 in transit
- Browser and API traffic is encrypted in transit with modern TLS. The public reporting channel does not load advertising cookies.
- AES-256-GCM at rest
- Application secrets and stored payloads use authenticated encryption at rest. TOTP secrets are stored encrypted, not as plaintext.
- EU region (Frankfurt / Supabase)
- Primary application database is hosted in the EU (Frankfurt via Supabase). We do not advertise a second production region we do not operate.
Contracting entity
QReportly is operated by Qreportly LLC, a Wyoming (USA) limited liability company (30 N Gould St Ste R, Sheridan, WY 82801). Cross-border SaaS contracts and an EU-hosted production database give enterprise buyers a clear operator, a clear processor location, and a signed DPA.
What the platform automates
- 7-day acknowledgement
- The product can send the statutory acknowledgement of receipt automatically. The legal duty still sits with the organisation.
- Electronic reporting register
- Closed cases can be exported as a register PDF and as an individual official case file — without the whistleblower’s secret access key.
- Secure channel & QR poster
- Employees reach the form from a jurisdiction-adapted poster. Demo reports stay out of the official register.
- Two-step verification
- Dashboard access requires TOTP after sign-in, so a stolen password is not enough to open confidential cases.

“Within seven days of receipt, written confirmation is sent to the whistleblower.”
East-zone pricing from €24/month is commercial. Channel data is still processed as a processor under the public DPA; the organisation remains controller.
Questions specific to this Member State
- Who is typically in scope in Bulgaria?
- Employers with 50+ employees, public-sector bodies and regulated-sector organisations, as framed by the Protection of Whistleblowers Act. Confirm with Bulgarian counsel.
- Does EU hosting mean every vendor is in the EU?
- Report content and primary production are in the EU. Stripe and optional Google OAuth may process limited account data outside the EEA with GDPR transfer safeguards. We do not claim EU-only for every ancillary provider.
- Register and templates?
- The product generates an electronic register and Word templates. They are tools, not a filing with a Bulgarian authority.
