Subprocessors

Subprocessors

Effective December 21, 2022

An effective and efficient performance of BlackLine’s services requires the use of Sub-processors. These Sub-processors can include Affiliates of BlackLine as well as third party organizations. BlackLine’s use of Sub-processors may require the transfer of Customer Data to Sub-processors for purposes like hosting Customer Data, providing customer support, and ensuring the services are working properly. GDPR requires processors to inform their clients (the data controllers) about any Sub-processors they may be engaging. Below is the list of third parties that BlackLine has contracted with and who may process customer data.

Not all of these sub-processors will be relevant to the way you access and use our services and we’ve set out some details around this below. If you’re unsure, please check the terms of your agreement with us or get in touch with your account manager.

For the purposes of this Sub-processor list, BlackLine’s Financial Controls & Automation Platform will be referred to as the "BlackLine Platform". The term "BlackLine Platform" does not include BlackLine’s Accounts Receivable product(s) (“BlackLine AR”) or BlackLine’s Intercompany Financial Management product(s) (“BlackLine IFM”).
