  Hi there,

  We maintain data centres across the world, so your data is not stored in any one country.

  Please see https://en.support.wordpress.com/security/ and https://automattic.com/privacy/ for more information.

  Thanks. For the Data Privacy Notice that our organisation is required to issue, our ‘website host’ has to be named. Please could you confirm whether this is ‘WordPress’ or ‘Automattic’?

  Hi @brightwi, you could say WordPress.com (you would need to include the .com) or Automattic.

  I hope this helps!
