Data Residency

Your financial records are stored in Australia.

AccountsAndGo runs on Google Cloud's Sydney region. Every database query, every file, every AI analysis is processed in Australia. This isn't a setting you toggle. It is a hard constraint in our infrastructure, enforced by a location policy that only allows Australian regions, and your records and files at rest never leave the country.

What we guarantee

  • All your records and files are stored in australia-southeast1 (Sydney) and never leave Australia at rest.
  • AI analysis (Max) runs in that same Sydney region, in-region, not sent overseas, and not used to train models.
  • Handled under the Australian Privacy Principles.
  • A few global services that run your account (sign-in, payments, email and SMS) are provided from overseas, and this page names every one.

Frequently asked

Where exactly is my data stored?

Every document, file and function runs in Google Cloud's australia-southeast1 region, physically in Sydney. Your records and files at rest do not leave Australia. It is a constraint in our infrastructure, not a setting.

Is my data sent overseas for AI features?

No. Max runs in the same Sydney region, in-region under a data-protection agreement, and your inputs are not used to train AI models.

Does anything leave Australia?

Your records and files stay in Sydney. A few account services are provided from overseas (sign-in, payments, email delivery and SMS), each handling only what it needs. We name every one on our Subprocessors page.

Can I connect my bank?

You can import transactions by CSV, straight from Xero or MYOB, or through a live read-only feed for Revolut Business. Feeds for the Australian banks go through the Consumer Data Right (Open Banking) and are in development.

How does this compare to overseas platforms?

Many global platforms store Australian business data in overseas data centres, which can raise questions under the Australian Privacy Principles, particularly APP 8 (cross-border disclosure). AccountsAndGo keeps your records in Sydney by design.
