Subprocessor List

LAST UPDATED: May 6, 2026


To support SOVA in delivering its Services, SOVA may engage third party service providers to assist SOVA with its data processing activities. When we work with these service providers in our capacity as a data processor, the third-party service provider is a sub-processor of SOVA (“Sub-processor”).


This page identifies the Sub-processor, describes where they are located, and what services they provide to us. Before engaging any Sub-processor, we perform extensive due diligence, including detailed security and legal analysis. We do not engage a Sub-processor unless our quality standards are met. Our Sub-processors are all subject to contract terms that enforce compliance with applicable data protection laws.

Our business needs may change from time to time. For example, we may deprecate a Sub-processor to consolidate and minimize our use of Sub-processors. Similarly, we may add a Sub-processor if we believe that doing so will enhance our ability to deliver our Services. We will periodically update this page to reflect additions and removals to our list of Sub-processors.
