Legal
Sub-processors
Last updated: 30 September 2026
This list is Annex 3 of our Data Processing Agreement. We announce any addition or replacement at least 30 days in advance by email to account holders and on this page; you may object as described in section 6.2 of the DPA.
May process API content (both tiers)
| Sub-processor | Service | Location of processing | Safeguard |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hetzner Online GmbH, Industriestr. 25, 91710 Gunzenhausen, Germany | Hosting of the websites (including the dashboard), API gateway, database and encrypted backups | EU (data centre in Helsinki, Finland) | Provider's standard Art. 28 GDPR agreement required before customer-data processing; ISO/IEC 27001-certified data centres |
| DataCrunch Oy (trading as Verda), Helsinki, Finland | GPU servers for model inference | Finland (EU) | Art. 28 GDPR data processing terms; ISO/IEC 27001 and SOC 2 Type II (per provider) |
At present, API content of both tiers never leaves the European Union.
Account, billing and identity providers — no API content
The providers below may receive account, billing or sign-in data, but never API request content. Their roles depend on the service: some act as processors on our instructions; Stripe and Google act as independent controllers for their own payment or identity services. See the Privacy Policy for details.
| Provider | Service | Location | Role |
|---|---|---|---|
| Stripe Payments Europe, Ltd., Dublin, Ireland | Payments, tax calculation and invoices | EU; transfers to Stripe, Inc. (USA) under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework and Standard Contractual Clauses | Independent controller for payment processing; processor for invoicing |
| Scaleway SAS, 8 rue de la Ville-l'Évêque, 75008 Paris, France | Service emails (sign-in links, receipts and notices); planned, not in use at present | EU (Paris, France) | Processor, once enabled; its Art. 28 GDPR agreement is concluded before first use |
| Google Ireland Limited, Dublin, Ireland | Google sign-in; verified email and stable account ID only | EU; transfers to Google LLC (USA) may occur under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework | Independent controller for identity services |
Global tier — current status
The Global tier currently runs on the same EU infrastructure and sub-processors as the EU tier, with lower priority. Before any Global-tier traffic is processed outside the EU, we will add the operators to this list with their locations and transfer safeguards, announce the change at least 30 days in advance, and route a key's traffic there only after you have explicitly opted in for that key.
