Data region
Your Feedjolt data region, EU or US, sets where uploaded files live in Cloudflare R2. Picked at sign-up, inherited by workspaces, and permanent by design.
Your data region determines where your uploaded files are stored. EU or US.
What's stored where
- EU: file uploads (logos, post attachments, image embeds) live in
feedjolt-eu-private- Cloudflare R2 in the EU. - US: same, in
feedjolt-us-private.
Database storage (posts, comments, votes, settings) is unified in a single Postgres physically in the EU. The region selector currently routes file storage only.
How the region is set
- At user sign-up - pick EU or US. "No preference" defaults to US.
- Inherited by your workspace when you create one. Other members can be in any region; the workspace's region is the creator's region.
Why is it immutable?
Region migration sounds simple but isn't:
- File references in old emails need to keep working (presigned URLs).
- Backups must be re-encrypted with region-appropriate keys.
- Audit logs reference the original region indefinitely.
Rather than offer a flaky migration tool, we don't offer it at all. If you really need to switch, the path is:
- Export your workspace data via the API.
- Delete the workspace (region is per-workspace; deleting + recreating is the cleanest reset).
- Sign up a new account with the right region.
- Recreate the workspace and re-import.
This is painful by design - region choice should be a 30-second decision, not a quarterly migration.
Compliance / DPA
EU customers on the EU region: file storage stays in the EU. A Data Processing Addendum (DPA) is available; email [email protected] to request.
Multi-region workspaces
Not supported. Each workspace is in one region. If you need separate regional instances (e.g., a US sales org and an EU support org), create two workspaces.
What does NOT change with region
- Pricing (same per plan, all regions).
- Feature set (no region-locked features).
- Database location (currently EU; see above).
- Email sending (single global SMTP path).
- DNS / CDN (single global edge).
The region setting is genuinely just "where do my uploaded files go". Important for compliance reviews, doesn't change the product.
Email preferences
Control which Feedjolt emails you receive. Opt out per type from Settings or any unsubscribe link, manage end-user preferences, and stop all workspace emails.
Delete your account
Delete your Feedjolt account permanently. What gets removed, what survives, transferring owned workspaces, GDPR data export, and how to recover access.
