Data residency is available on the Business plan.
Data residency means storing your data in a specific geographic location to meet local laws and regulations.

​
Why does data residency matter?

Different regions have different requirements for where data can be stored:
  • GDPR requires that EU citizens’ personal data is protected according to European standards, no matter where it’s stored or processed.
  • Some government organizations in countries like Australia must keep certain data within their borders.
By choosing where your data is stored, you can meet these requirements and demonstrate compliance.

​
How does data residency work in Speckle?

Speckle workspaces let you choose where your data lives, so you can stay compliant while keeping full control over your data.
  • Every workspace starts in Speckle’s default region.
  • Business plan customers can choose a different region for their workspace to meet their compliance needs.
  • The Extra data region add-on lets you set data residency at the project level for more granular control.

​
Available Regions

Data residency is available on the Business plan.
  • Choose from EU, UK, North America, or Asia Pacific as your workspace’s default region. All of your project data will be stored in this region.
  • For more granular regions, and project-specific regions, contact us about the Extra data region add-on.
  • If you don’t specify a region, your data automatically goes to Speckle’s default region, optimized for performance and speed.
