Sub-processor list
Third parties that process customer data on behalf of Responsemate ApS
Last updated: 16 October 2026. This list is Appendix B of Responsemate's Data Processing Agreement in stand-alone form. Customers are notified by e-mail at least 30 days before a sub-processor is added or replaced (60 days for the AI model provider that processes customer content) and may object as described in the Data Processing Agreement.
1. Sub-processors
| Sub-processor | Entity and address | What it does for the Service | Where the data is processed | Assurance |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| DigitalOcean | DigitalOcean, LLC, 105 Edgeview Drive, Suite 425, Broomfield, CO 80021, USA | Hosts the application and the background worker (App Platform) and the managed job queue (Valkey).

| Cloudflare (engaged by DigitalOcean) | Cloudflare, Inc., 101 Townsend Street, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA | DigitalOcean App Platform's content-delivery and TLS edge: every request to the Service passes through Cloudflare's network in transit before it reaches the application. Sets the strictly necessary cookie `__cf_bm` (bot protection, 30 minutes). Stores no content of the Service. | EU points of presence for EU visitors (currently Copenhagen); US entity | ISO/IEC 27001, 27701, SOC 2 type II; EU-US Data Privacy Framework; DigitalOcean's SCCs |
| MongoDB Atlas | MongoDB Limited, Building Two, Number One Ballsbridge, Dublin 4, Ireland | Primary database: user accounts, knowledge base text and embeddings, questionnaires and answers, activity and AI logs, backups. | EU/EEA, currently Stockholm, Sweden (AWS eu-north-1) | SOC 2 type II, ISO/IEC 27001, 27017, 27018, 27701; DPA with SCCs |

| OpenAI | OpenAI Ireland Ltd, 1st Floor, The Liffey Trust Centre, 117-126 Sheriff Street Upper, Dublin 1, Ireland | Fallback AI provider, used only for a workspace that has not connected an AI provider of its own: drafts answers, summaries, classifications, chat replies and embeddings from the excerpts the Service sends, and transcribes voice recordings a user dictates to the assistant (the recording is transcribed and discarded). Processing only: API data is not used for training and nothing is stored beyond abuse monitoring (up to 30 days); the workspace's content stays in the EU. | United States, transient processing only | SOC 2 type II; EU–US Data Privacy Framework (OpenAI, L.L.C.); DPA with SCCs |
| Scaleway | Scaleway SAS, 8 rue de la Ville l'Évêque, 75008 Paris, France | Sends transactional e-mail (invitations, password resets). | Paris, France (fr-par) | ISO/IEC 27001, HDS; DPA |
| Sentry | Functional Software, Inc., 45 Fremont Street, 8th Floor, San Francisco, CA 94105, USA | Error and performance monitoring. An error event carries the signed-in user's id, the workspace name and the URL of the failing request; no name and no e-mail address. Browser replays mask all text and media. The monitoring script is served from the Service's own address. | EU data residency, Frankfurt, Germany | SOC 2 type II, ISO/IEC 27001; DPA with SCCs |
2. Integrations the customer controls
These services receive data only when a workspace administrator enables the integration, and under the customer's own agreement with the provider. They are not sub-processors of Responsemate.
| Service | When data flows | What flows |
|---|---|---|
| Microsoft Entra ID | The customer turns on single sign-on. | Sign-in identity, name, e-mail, profile photo of the customer's users. |
| Microsoft SharePoint (Microsoft Graph) | The customer connects a SharePoint site or library. | Documents the customer chooses to sync into the knowledge base. |
| Slack | The customer installs the Slack app. | User directory for matching accounts; questions and answers the customer's users send through the bot. |
| Google Forms, Microsoft Forms | A user asks the Service to read a public web form. | The form's questions (read from the public form address the user supplies). |
| Customer's own AI provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, Azure OpenAI, Google, Mistral, Amazon Bedrock) | An administrator enters the customer's own API key. | The same excerpts and prompts that would otherwise go to Responsemate's default provider, and voice recordings for transcription where the provider can transcribe speech. |
| A second provider for voice input only (OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, Mistral or Google) | An administrator whose chat provider cannot transcribe speech (Anthropic, Amazon Bedrock) chooses one on the AI configuration tab, with the customer's own key. | Voice recordings a user dictates to the assistant; transcribed and discarded. |
3. Services that receive no personal data
| Service | What it receives |
|---|---|
| logo.dev | Company names and company domain names, to find and display company logos for clients and vendors. |
| Public websites | The Service fetches public pages when a user runs a vendor scan or checks the links in the knowledge base. No customer data is sent. |
4. Responsemate's own personnel
Responsemate ApS is a Danish company. Its personnel work from Denmark and access customer data only when needed for support, operations or incident response, under written confidentiality obligations and with multi-factor authentication at every provider console.
