ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

The clause defines the operational data processing relationship and allocates responsibility for compliance with data protection obligations. Fly.io's processor status means the customer bears primary legal responsibility for lawful data handling and compliance with applicable data protection regulations.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Customers deploying applications on Fly.io's platform must ensure they have appropriate legal basis and authority to process any personal data within those applications, as Fly.io operates as their designated processor rather than as an independent controller. Customers remain accountable for compliance obligations related to that personal data.
