EU data residency

Data stored within EU borders by default without requiring upgrade

What is eu data residency?

EU data residency means data is processed and stored within EU borders by default. For any organisation subject to GDPR, this is not a nice-to-have — it is a compliance requirement. Choosing a provider without EU data residency means your data may cross borders, creating legal risk. sourc.dev tracks this as a verified boolean attribute on every entity, checked against official provider documentation. It is one of the most filtered attributes in the directory.

Why it matters

If your users are in the EU and you process any personal data through an AI model, you need to know where that data goes. EU data residency is a binary question — either the provider guarantees EU processing or it does not. sourc.dev tracks this as a verified boolean on every entity, checked against official documentation. If it changes, the history layer preserves the change with a timestamp and source.

Where models stand

18 models with eu data residency enabled:

Data available for 103 of 271 tracked entities.

How sourc.dev tracks this

sourc.dev verifies eu data residency manually from official provider documentation, API responses, and published specifications. Every data point includes a source URL and verification date. When a value changes, the old value is preserved in the history table and the new value is recorded alongside it. Nothing is overwritten — the full timeline is always available.

Frequently asked questions
FAQ Does EU data residency mean GDPR compliance?

EU data residency is one component of GDPR compliance, but not the whole picture. GDPR also requires lawful basis for processing, data minimisation, right to erasure, and more. Data residency addresses the "where" — GDPR addresses the "how".

FAQ Which providers offer EU data residency?

Availability varies and changes frequently. sourc.dev tracks this attribute for every entity in the directory. Check individual model and tool pages for current status and source links.

FAQ Can I use a US-hosted model with EU data?

Legally, it depends on your data processing agreements, the type of data, and applicable transfer mechanisms (such as EU-US Data Privacy Framework). Practically, many organisations in regulated industries choose EU-resident providers to simplify compliance.
