Sub-processors
Last updated: October 30, 2026
This page lists the third parties ("sub-processors") that Promodo Inc. engages to process personal data on our behalf in connection with the GELIOS service. It is referenced from Section 6 of our Privacy Policy.
We require every sub-processor to provide a level of data protection consistent with our obligations under applicable law, including the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the UK GDPR. Where personal data is transferred outside the EEA or the United Kingdom, we rely on Standard Contractual Clauses or another lawful transfer mechanism as described in Section 10 of the Privacy Policy.

Notes
Cloud infrastructure provider. GDPR Article 13(1)(e) requires disclosure of recipients or categories of recipients, and we disclose this provider as a category. We name the specific provider to customers, auditors and supervisory authorities on request — write to legal@gelios-monitor.ai. The provider is established in the United States and holds a current certification under the EU–US Data Privacy Framework, so transfers to it rely on the European Commission's adequacy decision of 10 July 2023. Until August 2026 the Service was hosted in Ukraine.
Search data provider. As with the cloud infrastructure provider, we disclose it as a category, as GDPR Article 13(1)(e) permits, and name it to customers, auditors and supervisory authorities on request — write to legal@gelios-monitor.ai. It receives only query text, region and domain names, not data about your identity, and it is established in the European Economic Area, so transfers to it stay within the EEA.
Authentication. GELIOS manages user accounts itself using Laravel Fortify. Passwords are stored only as salted hashes and are never transmitted to a third party. Google appears above solely because Google Sign-In is offered as an optional alternative to email-and-password login.
Technical administration. The Service is administered by Promodo personnel, part of whom work from Ukraine. They are not a separate sub-processor — they are our own staff — but their access means personal data stored in the United States can be viewed from Ukraine in the course of deployment, monitoring and incident response. Section 10 of the Privacy Policy describes the safeguards that apply.
Microsoft Clarity. Microsoft states that it acts as an independent controller of the data collected through Clarity, rather than as a processor acting on our behalf. We list it here regardless, because it receives personal data arising from your use of our website and Article 13(1)(e) GDPR requires us to disclose recipients. Clarity is configured to set no cookies at all, so it places nothing in your browser and cannot recognise you on other websites.
Google Analytics. Google processes Google Analytics data on our behalf under Google's data processing terms. We use it on the marketing site and inside the Service, with the cookies described in Section 9 of the Privacy Policy, and for statistics only: we do not use the data for advertising and do not link it to Google Ads.
Meta. Meta processes this data to measure and deliver our ads and also as an independent controller under its own terms; for people in the EEA and the United Kingdom, Promodo Inc. and Meta Platforms Ireland Limited are joint controllers for the collection and transmission of the data. Meta Pixel is not loaded, and payments are not reported to Meta, while you are opted out (Privacy Policy, Section 8.3) or your browser sends the Global Privacy Control signal.
Stripe. Stripe is listed because it is the payment processor for Paid Plans. Until paid subscriptions are launched, no payment data is processed.
Changes to this list
We may add or replace sub-processors as the Service evolves. When we do, we update this page and, where the change materially affects the processing of your personal data, we provide notice in accordance with Section 14 of the Privacy Policy.
