Assessment Basis

Produced under Method v1.6 from the entity's fact record. 8 of 8 observations were measured under that generation; the rest read Not Measured, which is a fact about this register's coverage and not a finding about the entity.

Read from 18 first-party surface(s) across 3 assessed offering(s), found by the entity's own link graph and sitemap rather than by guessed paths.

The One Thing To Publish First

Publish it: publish a sub-processor list.

Where To Put It

No page on your own surfaces was carrying an answer to this question when you were read, so there is no address to correct — this one needs a home before it needs wording.

Where Others Stand

83 organisations in the register publish a sub-processor list. On two of your three assessed offerings you do not, which is what this row is banded on.

What A Published Answer Looks Like

We use a few different third-party subprocessors to help us provide our services to you. These subprocessors process data that you input into the services, which may include personal data.

A question answered plainly in public, by an organisation read as Strong on it. It is not an endorsement of the position the sentence states — Black Snow reads what is published and never recommends what to practise. Read on a published sub-processor page. Claim tier Quoted. The organisation that published it is not named. A name in the original is replaced; nothing else in the sentence is changed.

One is named here, and one is deliberate. The rest of the open questions are listed below without a prescription; what to publish for each, in what order, and drafted machine-readable evidence for all of them, is the Deep Dive.
