Since we like to be transparent about your information and where it lives, we’ve made a list of the cloud services we use and what we use them for.
In a perfect would we would be self-hosting everything but currently with my personal situation and the current state of Australian Internet, it is’t very feasable to provide a reliable service.

| AWS Cloudfront | Cache for S3 |

| AWS SES | Automated Emails (Account Verification, Password Reset, etc…) |
