Where your data goes

By default, your data does not leave Europe: this is included in every project, at no extra cost. If your trade requires it, it can stay within France, or on your premises.

Level 1 — EuropeanIncluded as standard
Level 2 — FranceOptional
Level 3 — In-houseOn request, after a study
Three nested boundaries: you choose yours when you order.
Options01

Europe by default, three levels to choose from

Everything we put into service uses European or open AI models, hosted in the European Union. Many solutions go outside Europe by default; our default is Europe — and it costs you nothing more.

  • Included as standard

    Level 1 — European

    Your data does not leave Europe. European or open AI models, hosting in the European Union: how every project works by default.

  • Optional

    Level 2 — France

    Your data does not leave France. Models and hosting in France; the whole chain checked end to end — logs, backups and monitoring tools included — and a written commitment on where your data is located, re-checked every year. If moving to a French model calls for adjustments, we redo the settings and the checks: the quality stays as agreed.

  • On request, after a study

    Level 3 — In-house

    Your data does not leave your premises. Dedicated infrastructure, at your expense, priced after an architecture study: with Business Agents and the Company Brain.

And exceptions? If, for a specific task, the right tool is located outside the European Union, the exception is written down, justified and approved by you: for this task, here is what leaves, where, and why.

Annual sovereignty check

€690 excl. VAT per year

  • Mandatory at Levels 2 and 3: on the anniversary date, we re-check the whole chain and give you a written, dated certificate of location.
  • The Level 2 — France price appears on each offer’s page, next to the Level 1 price. Level 3 — In-house is priced after a study.

Indicative prices, excluding VAT, for the basic scope described. Your firm price is set in the quote, before any work starts.

Running costs — use of the AI models, hosting, third-party tool licences — are costed in the same quote: you know them before you sign, and you choose to pay them at actual cost or as a flat fee.

If your company is based in France, public funding may reduce what you pay. Public funding · What makes the price vary

Level 203

Staying in France: what you pay for, and who needs it

What you are really paying for

  • Not a change of model: switching AI provider is simple.
  • What takes work, and has value: checking the whole chain end to end, then giving you a written commitment on where your data is located.
  • Guaranteeing that nothing leaves the country is not the same as using a French model: that difference is what you pay for.

Who needs it

  • A trade bound by professional secrecy, such as a law firm: the requirement then goes beyond the GDPR.
  • A company whose client or main contractor requires it, for example in its security questionnaire or its call for tenders.
  • And any business leader who makes it their choice: it is their right, and we price it clearly.
Transparency04

An informed choice, written proof

A choice, not a legal obligation

The GDPR does not require your data to stay in France, or even in Europe: it allows it to be transferred outside the Union, provided that safeguards laid down by the regulation govern the transfer. Rules specific to certain sectors, such as the hosting of health data or the rules that apply to public administrations, may however impose particular hosting conditions. For most companies, staying in France is therefore a choice, or a customer’s requirement — and it is up to you to decide.

Proof, rather than promises

Every proposal includes a “where your data goes” page. You know before signing; you can check it afterwards.

  3. How long the data is kept
