Many countries require user data to be stored within their own borders. Zoho sets up data centres based on the data protection and privacy laws of the countries it serves, and your data centre choice determines both where your data physically resides and which region's laws primarily govern it, whether that's the EU's GDPR, India's DPDP Act, or another region's equivalent legislation.
Your data centre is set at account creation, typically auto-filled based on your IP address, though you can change the selected country during sign-up if needed. Once set, this choice is generally permanent for the life of the account.
Each data centre facility holds its own set of compliance certifications, generally including some combination of ISO 27001, SOC 1 Type II, SOC 2 Type II, and ISO 22301, though the exact certifications held vary by specific facility and are periodically updated. Check Zoho's current documentation for the certifications relevant to your specific data centre.
