Sub-processors
Version 1.0 · Last updated 2 October 2026
Understory A/S and Understory Iberia S.L.U. (together “Understory”) use the sub-processors listed on this page to deliver the Understory platform. This list forms part of Appendix B of our data processing agreements with customers.
Which means
These are the companies that handle your guests’ data on our behalf when we run the platform for you. We tell you before we add or replace one, and you can object.
How we tell you about changes
We notify customers of any intended addition or replacement of a sub-processor at least 30 days before it starts processing personal data on their behalf, where our agreement with that sub-processor allows it, and otherwise as soon as we receive notice ourselves. Notice is sent to the contact person registered in the customer’s account, and every change is recorded in the change log at the bottom of this page.
A customer may object within 14 days of the notice, on reasonable grounds relating to data protection, by writing to privacy@understory.io. Sub-processors introduced by a module or feature that the customer chooses to activate are accepted as part of that activation, as set out in the data processing agreement.
Understory group companies
The Understory company you have your agreement with uses the other group company as a sub-processor. Understory A/S operates the platform for all customers. Understory Iberia S.L.U. provides customer success and support for all customers.

Who is not on this list
Payment providers such as Stripe, Adyen (Understory Pay) and PayPal are not sub-processors. The customer holds its own account with the provider and contracts with it directly.
Advertising and analytics platforms that the customer connects using its own account, such as Meta, receive data on the customer’s instruction and act as independent controllers or as the customer’s own processors.
Services that Understory uses for its own purposes as an independent controller, such as product analytics and customer relationship management, are described in the Understory privacy policy.
