This feature is ✔️ available for:
Plan: Enterprise (included in all new subscriptions from 3rd of October)
Limited Access: Business
Billing: Yearly

Decide where your team's files are stored. Choose from eight secure data center locations and customize the setting by user groups to satisfy regional law and regulations.

Enable Data Residency Options

  • Business
  • Enterprise

Contact your account manager — they can enable this feature for you for an additional fee. Once your request is accepted, you will receive a confirmation email and your billing will change.

If you are on an Enterprise plan you don’t have to do anything — this feature is available to you by default.

Set up a new data location

You can choose a custom location for every policy template you have. Once you’re done, every new tresor will be stored on that location. Older tresors, however, won’t be migrated automatically.

What to expect

  • From now on, new tresors will be stored on the location you selected.
  • Changing data residency on a template will not affect existing tresors. They will stay on their old location unless they are moved manually.
  • Unless they have admin rights, users can’t see their own policy template — you will need to inform them about the new setting.
  • Users will need to move their tresors to the new location manually — learn how they can do it.
  • Tresor sharing and invitations won’t be affected by this policy setting. Users can be invited to tresors that are stored on different locations and upload files there.
  • When a user has tresors on multiple data centers, Tresorit will display the locations like this:
