5. Who we share data with (recipients and sub-processors)
Your data may be shared with the following recipients, only as far as necessary:
- General Directorate of Taxation, through AKSHI's systems, for invoice fiscalisation and e-Invoicing. (Legal obligation.)
- Sub-processors that help us provide the Service: DigitalOcean (servers and database), Cloudflare (DNS and DDoS protection), Mailgun (service emails), Pusher (real-time notifications) and Sentry (error logging, without personal data by default). The full list, with the location of each, is on the Sub-processors page.
- Anthropic, PBC, only for businesses that switch on the artificial intelligence features and accept their terms.
- Integrations you connect yourself (Shopify, WooCommerce, Wolt, POK, MCP clients, API applications), only as far as you allow and on your instruction.
- kursi.al for currency exchange rates. We do not send it any personal data.
- Google LLC (Analytics, Ads), Meta Platforms, Inc. (Pixel), Microsoft Corp. (Clarity), BoostCDN, poopup.co, Tawk.to Inc. only on the public website and only after your consent to analytics/marketing cookies.

6. Where data is stored and international transfers
The servers and the database are located in the European Union, in the Netherlands (DigitalOcean, Amsterdam). Mailgun, Pusher and Sentry also process data in the EU.
Traffic passes through the global network of Cloudflare, Inc., which does not store invoice data. Anthropic (for the artificial intelligence features) and the cookie services (Google, Meta, Microsoft, Tawk.to) process data in the USA. For these transfers we rely on the EU Standard Contractual Clauses or on adequacy decisions, in accordance with Law no. 124/2024.

- Fiscal data (invoices, customers on invoices): up to 10 years after the fiscal year, as required by tax law.

- API tokens and activity logs: up to 12 months after the last login.
- Marketing emails / newsletter subscription: until consent is withdrawn or 24 months after the last interaction.
- Analytics/marketing cookies: according to the period of each service (usually 6 to 24 months). They can be reviewed in the cookie preferences.
