Impossible Cloud Data Processing Agreement Summary
A high-level overview of how Impossible Cloud ensures GDPR compliance and data integrity through robust security measures, acting as your trusted data processor.
How We Process Data
Impossible Cloud processes personal data in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), in particular Article 28. The Data Processing Agreement (DPA) defines the conditions under which data is processed, secured, and protected when using Impossible Cloud services.
All personal data processed within Impossible Cloud services is handled solely on documented instructions of the contracting party. Impossible Cloud does not determine the purposes of data processing and does not process data for its own independent purposes.
Scope of the DPA
The data processing agreements governs:
- The processing of personal data strictly in line with documented instructions,
- Implementation of appropriate technical and organizational measures,
- Confidentiality and integrity of data,
- Assistance with GDPR compliance obligations where applicable.
Partner and indirect service setups
In partner- or reseller-based setups, the DPA applies to the entity contracting directly with Impossible Cloud. That entity remains responsible for ensuring that the relevant data protection obligations are appropriately addressed toward any end customers, where required.
Impossible Cloud’s processing activities remain unchanged regardless of the commercial setup: data is processed only as instructed and only for the provision of the contracted services.

Below are some technical and organizational measures applied to safeguard your data:
- Identity and Access Management:
- Role-based access controls (RBAC) for data and system access.
