How I Handle Trello Support

Hosting in the EU would not change much as far as the NSA's reach is concerned — as long as it is a U.S. company, your data is accessible to government agencies.

It's a very real concern, but I don't think hosting in the E.U. solves anything.

Maybe I was not clear - this is not about stopping the NSA reading my support emails (I pretty much assume anything I do that is digital is caught, even if not read)

My concern is winning business with UK public sector - the Data Protection Act and ICO are clear on processing data only inside legal regiemes that share the same data privacy protections - in other words EU companies must process inside EU borders.

Or rather we don't have to but it's a pain in the arse to explain why not and I have enough to do so please please please either stick processors inside the EU or can I find a bunch if similar parties who fancy shouldering the cost of doing same.
