Vendor profile

Perplexity: where is customer data stored and processed?

Perplexity is headquartered in Sweden and is controlled by private individuals, not named in the data. The data processing addendum (dated 13 August 2026) has been read, but it does not state where data is stored, and the storage location is not found in other sources. Documented AI, logging, and analytics sub-processors are located in the USA, including Anthropic, OpenAI, Google Cloud, Datadog, Cloudflare, Snowflake and ClickHouse, and the sub-processor list shows only "US" per vendor, not where data is kept. Where processing, backup, identity, support and notifications take place is not stated. The customer group and product are not specified, so it is not known whether the service is aimed at consumers or businesses.
