Subprocessors

Introduction

Under Data Protection Laws (as defined in the Snyk Data Processing Addendum or “DPA”), Snyk, in its role as data processor, is required to disclose third-parties who process personal data on our customer’s behalf. The below listed subprocessors perform an important role in the Services Snyk provides.

What is a subprocessor?

A subprocessor is a third party, acting on behalf of Snyk. Subprocessors process personal data of which Snyk is a processor. Subprocessors only process personal data pursuant to a written contract between Snyk and the subprocessor which includes necessary and appropriate security, privacy and compliance obligations. 

Snyk’s commitments with respect to subprocessors, including how we add or replace subprocessors, are outlined in the Snyk DPA.
