Data Location & Subprocessor Guide
Khoros has offices in the USA, the EU, the UK, India and Australia. These offices may have access to customer personal data for support and engineering purposes.
Khoros also uses subprocessors in its applications to help it perform certain Services. Suprocessors are third-party entities with whom Khoros contracts to perform these Services and who may process customers’ personal data. Khoros contractually requires its subprocessors to comply with security and data privacy standards that are at least as protective as those that Khoros commits to its customers.
Specifically, as concerning European Union data privacy regulatory compliance, Khoros complies with the EC Standard Contractual Clauses and requires that those subprocessors that have access to Customer personal data also comply.
For information on our subprocessors, please scroll down to the charts below or simply click on one of the following links to be redirected to the corresponding chart:
What has changed since our last version: we updated information on our hosting of Khoros Care logs with subprocessor Sumo Logic.
