Data protection and compliance

Data residency

Where data is physically stored and processed, which some customers and laws require to be in a particular country or region. Data sovereignty means it's also subject to that country's laws.

A plain-English explanation of how this usually works, not legal advice. Rules differ between countries and change over time, so check your own situation. Disclaimer.
