Legal entity from the vendor's own terms. LEI, registered country and parent company from the Global LEI Index (GLEIF); ownership is left empty where GLEIF names no parent. The CLOUD Act row is arithmetic over those countries, not an assessment of risk.
Data location

|---|---|---|---|---|
| EU | EU by default | — | docs.stackit.cloud | 2026-10-08 |
EU: STACKIT hosts all regions exclusively in Germany (eu01) and Austria (eu02), so data stays in the EU without the customer choosing it.

Processing terms
From the vendor's data processing agreement · read 2026-10-09 · stackit.com
| Term | What the agreement says |
|---|---|
| Transfer mechanism | SCC module 3 |
| Notice of new subprocessors | By e-mail, about intended changes to other processors; notice period not stated |
| If you object to one | Customer may object case by case only for good reason that it demonstrates, in text form by e-mail to [email protected], within 14 days of notification. If it objects, Contractor may terminate the Main Agreement and this Agreement on four weeks' notice |
| Breach notification | without undue delay |
| Audit | Audits including on-site inspections of premises during normal business hours, at customer's own cost, with notice in good time (usually at least two weeks); one audit per calendar year, additional audits only by agreement and subject to reimbursement; independent third-party auditors permitted, subject to contractor objection if unsuitable |
| Audit | Instead of an audit, the Contractor may choose to provide a current attestation or report from an independent entity, or a certification (e.g., ISO 27001, BSI IT-Grundschutz); Contractor is told in advance of any third-party auditor and may object to unsuitable ones |
Terms as the agreement states them. Where it is silent on a term, there is no row; that is not a statement that the vendor does not offer it.

Claimed means the vendor asserts the scheme on its own page and offers nothing further. Available on request means the report or certificate exists but sits behind a request, a login or an NDA. Neither is a certificate we have seen. That is a distinction an auditor makes, so we make it too.

What the authority publishes, not what the vendor claims. An entry covers the offering it names and nothing else: a FedRAMP authorisation for a government edition says nothing about the commercial service. No entry is not a finding about security - most vendors never apply - and an entry filed under a name not listed above would not have been found.
