Sub-processors

Last updated: May 18, 2026

To deliver SwiftIn we engage a small number of third-party services. The table below lists each provider, the category of work it performs, the data it receives from us, and the country in which that data is processed. This page is the canonical source for our sub-processor list and is referenced from our Privacy Policy and Data Processing Agreement.

We notify Team plan Controllers by email at least 30 days before adding or replacing a sub-processor, giving them a reasonable opportunity to object (see DPA §5). Material changes to this list are tracked through the "Last updated" date above and are independent of our Terms and Privacy versioning.

Resend

Transactional Email
Ireland (EU)

Purpose. Transactional email delivery (account verification, password resets, team invitations, billing receipts).

Vercel

Web Hosting
Global edge network

Purpose. Hosting for the SwiftIn website and dashboard at swiftin.dev.

Data shared. Standard HTTP request metadata (IP address, User-Agent, URL) for serving the website.

Railway

Backend Hosting
Netherlands (Eemshaven) — europe-west4

Purpose. Hosting for the SwiftIn backend API at api.swiftin.dev.

Data shared. Standard HTTP request metadata (IP address, User-Agent, URL) for serving API requests. Backend operational logs are stored here.

Sentry

Error Monitoring
Germany (Frankfurt) — eu-central-1

Purpose. Crash and error tracking, used to detect and resolve service-reliability issues (legitimate interest, GDPR Art. 6(1)(f)).

Data shared. Backend (Node/Express) error tracking captures stack traces, error messages, request URL/method, browser/OS metadata, and IP address; request bodies are captured with field-name redaction (password, token, secret, apiKey are replaced with [REDACTED]) and sensitive headers (Authorization, Cookie, payment-webhook signatures) are stripped before transmission. Web (browser) error tracking strips Authorization/Cookie headers; request/response bodies are not captured. Session Replay is enabled on the web dashboard only, at a 10% session sample rate and 100% on errors, with text content masked (maskAllText: true), media blocked (blockAllMedia: true), Supabase auth URLs excluded from network capture, and request/response headers not captured. Replays are kept for 90 days then automatically deleted by Sentry.

PostHog

Product Analytics
PostHog Cloud — United States instance (us.i.posthog.com). Transfer basis: PostHog Inc. self-certifies under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework; Standard Contractual Clauses (Decision 2021/914) apply as a backup mechanism.

Purpose. Product analytics for understanding feature usage. Strictly consent-based: off by default until you accept the cookie banner.

Data shared. Anonymous usage events and page views — only after explicit consent. Individual-user identification is not enabled.

Transfers outside the EEA

Most user data (account information, opted-in translation history, backend application data) is hosted in the European Union. Some sub-processors are located outside the EEA; where this applies to EU/EEA, UK, or Swiss residents' personal data, transfers are covered by the Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) adopted by the European Commission (Decision 2021/914) or, where the recipient has self-certified, by the EU-US Data Privacy Framework. Free-engine translation requests (Google Translate, Microsoft Bing) are issued directly from the user's browser to the engine provider; SwiftIn's servers do not proxy or relay these requests.

You may request a summary of the transfer mechanism for any specific provider by contacting legal@swiftin.dev.
