Sub-processors
Last updated: 3 May 2026 · Version 1.0
Advanta engages the third parties listed below to provide infrastructure, security, observability, and operational services. These sub-processors may process Customer Personal Data only as necessary to deliver the contracted Services and only under written agreements that bind them to confidentiality and security obligations equivalent to those in our DPA.
We notify Customers of new sub-processors at least 30 days before they are engaged, in line with the Data Processing Agreement (DPA). Customers may object to changes during that window. To subscribe to update notifications, email diogo@advanta.pt.

What we do NOT use as sub-processors: Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, Hotjar, FullStory, or any session-replay / behavioural-tracking tool on customer-facing applications. Marketing pages on advanta.pt may use privacy-friendly analytics (Plausible) without cookies.
Cross-border transfers
For sub-processors that may process data outside the EEA (currently: Stripe US fallback for some payment flows), transfers rely on the EU Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs, 2021/914) and supplementary measures (encryption in transit and at rest, data minimization).
