Notification of changes
Material changes to this subprocessor list are communicated to active clients at least 30 days before they take effect. Clients engaged under a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) may object in writing; Valtik will work in good faith to identify alternative subprocessors or scope the engagement to exclude the objected vendor.
Non-material changes (for example, a vendor adding a new region within the same jurisdiction) are updated here without prior notice but reflected with an updated "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
