Where is my data stored?

Secure EU and US regions. Residency preferences can be configured per client.

Updated April 18, 2026

Your workspace data is hosted on infrastructure in secure EU and US regions.

Default setup

  • Workspace database — EU region (Frankfurt) by default
  • File storage — region-matched to your workspace region
  • Transcripts and recordings — same region as your workspace

Residency preferences

If your industry or customer base requires specific data residency (e.g. UK-only, US-only, EU-only), we can configure your workspace to match. Mention it during onboarding and your Customer Success Manager will align the setup.

Third-party services

Kamva AI calls are proxied through providers that meet the same residency requirements. Notetaker recordings are stored in the workspace region.

No data in South Africa by default

Despite our operating base being in SA, your data is not stored in South Africa unless you specifically request it. This is a deliberate architectural decision to simplify GDPR and US compliance for our clients.
