Sub-processors

Last updated 9 August 2026

Draft. Providers and regions must be confirmed against the deployed infrastructure before this page is given to a customer.

Agencies using Vector are usually processors for their own clients, which makes us a sub-processor. Many client contracts require sub-processors to be disclosed and sometimes approved in advance — so this page exists to make that a two-minute task rather than a two-week one.

Current sub-processors

What is never sent to a third party

Raw search term text is never sent to the language model provider or to any analytics service. The payload used to generate recommendation text contains aggregated metrics for a single account and nothing else — no account identifiers, no client names, no free text from end users.

Notice of change

We will publish any new or replacement sub-processor here and notify account owners by email at least 30 days before it begins processing customer data, so that you have time to raise an objection or inform your own clients.

Documents available on request

A counter-signable data processing agreement, a one-page security summary, and — for customers using conflict groups — an exportable report showing exactly who has access to which clients as of a given date. Write to privacy@vboom.io.
