SafeRedact
Sub-processor Schedule

Sub-processors

Referenced by the SafeRedact Data Processing Agreements. Controllers receive at least 30 days’ notice before a sub-processor is added or replaced, and may object within 14 days.

Last updated 22 October 2026

What leaves the browser

Documents are opened, parsed, redacted and exported inside the Controller’s browser. Document files are never transmitted to or stored on SafeRedact systems. Text extracted from those documents is transmitted to the AI sub-processor for classification, together with the details of the data subject that the user enters for the case (such as name, email address, telephone number, reference numbers and other names), so that the subject’s own information is not redacted from the disclosure. SafeRedact does not store either at rest. Data-subject records the Controller saves for reuse are held in the Controller’s browser, and their details reach SafeRedact only inside a classification request. Account, security, usage and billing records are stored as set out below.

Retention

SafeRedact does not store document content or extracted text at rest. On the standard route, extracted text sent to Anthropic is retained by Anthropic for no longer than 30 days for abuse monitoring and is never used to train models, under Anthropic’s Commercial Terms and Data Processing Addendum. On the UK and EU route, detection runs on AWS infrastructure that does not store or log the text, does not use it for training, and does not make it available to the model provider. Account, security and usage records are retained for the term of the service agreement and deleted within 30 days of termination or on written request; billing records are kept for as long as the law requires. Resend keeps copies of the emails it sends, and Slack keeps staff notifications in SafeRedact’s workspace, under their standard retention. Saved data-subject records are stored in the Controller’s browser and removed when the Controller deletes them or clears site data.

International transfers

Application hosting and the API run in AWS Europe (London). Account, security and billing records are stored in the United States, where emails and staff notifications are also handled. On the standard route, extracted text is classified by Anthropic, which stores API data in the United States and may process requests there or in selected countries in Europe, Asia and Australia; on the UK and EU route, it is classified in European regions, including London. Transfers from the EEA are made under the Standard Contractual Clauses (Commission Decision 2021/914, Module Two, or Module Three where the Controller is itself a processor) completed in the annex to the EU DPA; transfers from the United Kingdom are made under the ICO’s International Data Transfer Agreement. Each sub-processor is engaged under a written data processing agreement incorporating the Standard Contractual Clauses where applicable. SafeRedact provides the information a Controller reasonably needs for its own transfer impact assessment.

Regional processing: For organisations that require regional processing, detection can instead run on AWS infrastructure within the UK and EU (European regions including London). That routing is set per organisation, is fixed for each case when the case is created, and every routing change is recorded in an audit trail. If residency is a hard requirement rather than a preference, raise it with support@saferedact.app before onboarding.
