The suppliers who process our customers' data on our behalf. The public version is on our trust page; we give customers 30 days' notice of any change to it.
| Sub-processor | What for | Data | Where | Since |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| AWS | Hosting: databases, files, backups, queues, logs | Everything we hold for a customer | The customer's region: Frankfurt, London or Virginia | 2019 |
| Mailcrest | Notice emails | Recipient's name and email, the notice's text, delivery records | EU customers: Mailcrest's EU region since 16 October. UK and US customers: our original account, in the US. Delivery records kept 30 days. | 2021 |
| Textbridge | SMS sign-in codes | Mobile number, the code | UK and EU | May 2026 |
| Atlassian (Jira, Confluence) | Support tickets and our wiki | Customers' staff names and emails in tickets; screenshots customers send | EU | 2020 |
| Google Workspace | Email with customers' staff | Names, emails, what they write to us | EU | 2019 |
Not sub-processors: HubSpot holds our sales contacts at customers, not their people's data. GitHub holds our code and test data only. Emargen reads our code, Jira and this wiki; no customer production data goes into it.
Mailcrest's US message logs
On 12 October, while building ACM-296, engineering found that Mailcrest keeps its message logs for 30 days in the region of the account, and our one account was in the US (ACM-305). Every customer's notices had left their region in those logs. Mira chose a second account in Mailcrest's EU region on 13 October; EU customers' mail goes through it since 16 October (OPS-50). UK customers still go through the US account: see Data regions.
