Compliance review: Lettermint vs MailerSend
MailerSend hosts in the EU, but the company you contract with is MailerSend, Inc., a US corporation, and its DPA allows transfers to US group companies. That means the CLOUD Act applies and your data needs extra safeguards. With Lettermint, your email data stays in the EU on sovereign European infrastructure, and the company is a Dutch B.V. No extra paperwork. Below are the facts your privacy or legal team will ask for.
EU data residency
Email data is hosted, stored and processed in the EU on sovereign infrastructure Lettermint owns and operates, as a written commitment in the DPA.
About our EU infrastructureData Processing Agreement
Lettermint is your processor under Article 28 GDPR. The public DPA covers security and audit rights and is countersigned on request.

Data use terms in the DPANo longer than needed
We keep your data only as long as your account needs it. Close your account and everything is deleted, exactly as the DPA sets out.
Deletion terms in the DPAInternational transfers
No transfers outside the EEA on Lettermint's initiative. Email to recipients outside the EU is delivered only at your instruction.
How EU-only delivery worksCertification
