Compliance map
Where your data privacy is protected with Carbonio
From GDPR in Europe to HIPAA in the United States, LGPD in Brazil, and PDPA across Asia — Carbonio is built so that data stays where regulation requires it, deployed in jurisdiction by certified partners.
Four questions
Four answers every IT leader should be able to give about their data — today
01
Where does it physically live?
Can you point to the specific country where your data currently resides — right now, without checking?
02
Which laws govern it?
Which jurisdiction's rules apply to that data by default — and which extraterritorial laws may also reach it?
03
Who can request access?
Who can legally compel access to your data, under what conditions, and with what notice — if any — to you?
04
Could you leave tomorrow?
If you needed to change provider, could you move your data quickly, completely, and without losing functionality?
If you hesitated on even one answer, you don't fully control your data — and in 2026 that is a security and compliance risk, not a side note.

0The distinction that matters
Data residency and data sovereignty — not the same thing
Many organizations think they're compliant because they ticked a “local region” box in a hyperscaler dashboard. In a courtroom or an audit, the two terms mean very different things.
Data residency
Where the server physically sits.
A geographic statement. Example: “Our emails are stored in a Frankfurt data center.”
Data sovereignty
Which laws govern that data.
A legal statement. Example: “Because the provider is US-headquartered, the data is subject to the U.S. CLOUD Act — regardless of where the servers sit.”
True sovereignty means you don't just know where the data lives. You know who holds the keys.
A common myth
Sovereignty isn't anti-cloud — it's anti-ignorance
Digital sovereignty doesn't mean rejecting the cloud or forcing everything on-premises. It means three things, always: knowing where your data lives, understanding who can access it, and keeping the freedom to change deployment model. Cloud, hybrid, and on-prem can all support sovereignty — as long as they're transparent. Carbonio is built so the choice stays with you.
How Carbonio enables compliance
Architecture choices that map to regulation, not the other way around
Data residency by deployment
Carbonio runs on infrastructure you choose — single VM, distributed cluster, sovereign cloud, or partner-managed data center. Data physically stays where the deployment lives, by design rather than by policy.
Partner-delivered in jurisdiction
Local certified partners handle deployment, migration, and operations inside each country. No hyperscaler ticket queue, no cross-border processor chain.
Audit, retention, legal hold
Built-in audit logs, retention policies, and legal hold provide the building blocks your team needs to meet the evidence requirements of frameworks like GDPR, HIPAA, and NIS2.
Encryption and access controls
Encryption in transit and at rest, role-based access, 2FA, SSO via SAML / LDAP / AD — the access layer regulators expect for personal and sensitive data.
Mapping a specific regulation to your deployment?
A certified Carbonio partner in your jurisdiction can scope the deployment, the controls, and the evidence trail your regulator expects.
