    I would like to understand where data is stored and how it is used. I am using my account to collect Australian customer data, that is used to populate a PDF. I would like to confirm where the data is stored, i.e. in which country. If the data is stored in the US, what are my options to store locally? Thanks

    Hi Helen,

    Jotform's data centers are hosted on cloud platforms such as Google Cloud and Amazon Web Services (AWS). The primary locations include data centers in the United States (Iowa and Virginia) and in the European Union (Frankfurt, Germany).

    For your case, collecting Australian customer data, the default data storage is typically in the US. However, Jotform offers options to store data locally in certain regions. For example, you can choose to store your data in the European Union by enabling the GDPR Datacenter option in your account settings. This will move your form data to servers in Frankfurt, Germany, ensuring compliance with EU regulations.

    If you want to keep your data stored locally in Australia, you might want to explore Jotform Enterprise solutions or contact us for more details on regional data hosting. Contacting our Enterprise Sales Team is easy, you'll just need to send a request first, and they'll reach out to you with more information. Let me show you where to find the request form:

    1. Go to the Contact Sales page, and fill out the form.
    2. Then, click on the Send Request button, and that's it.
