Clerk
The subprocessor list as we last read it, on Nov 11, 2026.
Dates are when we read the list (UTC), not when Clerk changed it. Between two readings we don't know what it said.
tall: list changed · medium: document changed · short: read, no change · x: check failed · dotted: change dates only. Tap a tick or use the date box.
We record change dates, not every check, before Oct 11, 2026.

Built from the changes we published; changes we recorded without an alert (parser fixes, entries approved after review) don't appear. Where we later improved how we read a list, an earlier list may look different from the vendor's page at the time.
