Subprocessors

This page lists the subprocessors Lyket relies on to provide its service — what each one does, what data it touches, and where it's located. See our privacy policy for the full picture of how we handle data.

Last updated: 16 September 2026.

International data transfers

Lyket's core infrastructure — application server, database, and cache — is hosted in the EU (Ireland, eu-west-1 region). Hashed IPs, account data, and vote/button data processed for the service do not leave the EEA.

A few subprocessors we use for billing, email, and error monitoring are based in the United States. Where personal data is transferred to them, we rely on the following legal mechanisms:

  • Stripe: covered by Stripe's active self-certification under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework, the UK Extension, and the Swiss-U.S. DPF. Stripe only processes billing information of paying Lyket customers, not website visitor data.
  • Twilio SendGrid: covered by Twilio's active self-certification under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework, the UK Extension to the EU-U.S. DPF, and the Swiss-U.S. DPF.
  • Rollbar: covered by Rollbar's active self-certification under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework, the UK Extension, and the Swiss-U.S. DPF.
  • For any subprocessor not certified under the DPF, we rely on the Standard Contractual Clauses as incorporated in that subprocessor's own data processing agreement.
