AWS Sub-processors

This page provides information about the sub-processors that AWS has engaged in accordance with the AWS Data Processing Addendum (AWS DPA) to provide processing activities on Customer Data (as defined in the AWS DPA) on behalf of customers. Sub-processors relevant to an individual customer will depend on the AWS Region the customer selects and the particular AWS services that the customer uses.

As explained in more detail below, there are four types of sub-processors:

  1. AWS entities that provide the infrastructure on which the AWS services run;
  2. AWS entities that support specific AWS services which may require these entities to process Customer Data;
  3. third parties that AWS has contracted with to provide processing activities for specific AWS services; and,
  4. entities that support the AWS European Sovereign Cloud and process Customer Data.

Note that sub-processors for the AWS European Sovereign Cloud are listed separately in Section 4. AWS will update this page at least 30 days before engaging a new sub-processor, and if you subscribe for updates, AWS will notify you by email of changes to this page.
