-While Netdata Agent itself does not engage in any cross-border data transfers, certain personal and infrastructure data
79
-is transferred to Netdata Cloud for the purpose of providing its services. The metric data collected and processed by
80
-Netdata Agents, however, stays strictly within the user's infrastructure, eliminating any concerns about cross-border

-When users utilize Netdata Cloud, the metric data is streamed directly from the Netdata Agent to the users’ web browsers
84
-via Netdata Cloud, without being stored on Netdata Cloud's servers. However, user identification data (such as email
85
-addresses) and infrastructure metadata necessary for Netdata Cloud's operation are stored in data centers in the United
86
-States, using compliant infrastructure providers such as Google Cloud and Amazon Web Services. These transfers and
87
