Snowflake: where is customer data stored and processed?

Snowflake stores customer content in the customer's chosen cloud region, which can be in the Netherlands, Ireland, Germany or Sweden, depending on the provider and region selected. The customer chooses the region, though non-EU/EEA regions also exist and can be avoided. Support is provided by affiliates in several countries, including Australia, Canada, France, Germany, India, the Netherlands, Singapore, the UK, Sweden and Spain, but the documentation does not say which of them can access customer data. Notifications and identity locations are not stated, and backup location is not stated. User metadata and usage data may be stored and processed in the USA and other countries.
