Subprocessors

The providers used for connected Stowspace features.

Last updated: August 12, 2026

These providers process data to operate connected Stowspace features. Some, including Polar for payment processing, may act as an independent controller for part of their service rather than only as a processor.

The free local Windows library works without an account or paid cloud services. GitHub may be contacted for desktop update checks. The website sends sanitized operational errors to Sentry; desktop, mobile, and extension reporting remains optional and off by default. Stowspace uses the other providers when you create an account, use connected services, buy a plan, or request hosted AI.

Stowspace may replace or add a provider as the service develops. This page will be updated before a new provider starts materially different processing. Stowspace will give more notice when a material change affects existing account data and notice is appropriate.
