Data Sovereignty

Whose laws apply to data, and who can be compelled to hand it over.

All glossary terms

Data sovereignty is about whose laws apply to your data and who can be compelled to hand it over. Data stored in the EU by a company subject to non-EU law may still be reachable under that law.

Why It Matters

The question to ask a vendor is not only “where”, but “who”: who operates the service, who their subprocessors are, and which jurisdictions they answer to.

In d8a.tech

The core data service runs on EU-only subprocessors, and self-hosting keeps the data entirely in your hands.
