Sub-processors.

We use a small set of third-party vendors to run the hosted Handshake services. The categories below describe what each vendor does for us; the current named vendor list is available on request and we notify customers under contract before adding a new sub-processor.

  • Cloud hosting / compute
    Runs the hosted Registry, Console, and supporting services.
  • Managed database
    Stores account, configuration, and DID-document data.
  • Object storage / backups
    Stores receipts, exports, and disaster-recovery snapshots.
  • Observability / logging
    Operational telemetry; no customer secrets are logged.
  • Transactional email
    Sends account, billing, and security notifications; no marketing.
  • Error monitoring
    Captures application errors with PII scrubbing applied.

Request the named list

Email info@handshake.ai with your entity name. Existing customers receive automatic email notification before any change to the named list under the terms of the Data Processing Agreement.
