Subprocessors
NivaDesk is operated by EGGCRAFT LIMITED.
This Subprocessors page explains the third-party service providers that NivaDesk may use to host, operate, secure, support, and improve the NivaDesk service.
This document supports our Privacy Policy, Terms of Service, Security Overview, and Data Processing Agreement. It lists the core providers we use or may use to operate NivaDesk, depending on the features enabled for a customer.
1. Who we are
NivaDesk is operated by EGGCRAFT LIMITED, 141d Randolph Avenue, London, W9 1DN, United Kingdom.
For privacy, data protection, or subprocessors questions, contact us at: contact@nivadesk.co.uk.
2. What is a subprocessor?
A subprocessor is a third-party service provider that may process personal data on behalf of NivaDesk in order to help us provide our service to customers.
For example, NivaDesk may use cloud infrastructure to store workspace data, authentication providers to manage login, payment providers to process subscriptions, or email providers to send account and service emails.
3. Our approach
We aim to use trusted providers that support reasonable security, reliability, and privacy standards.
We only allow subprocessors to process personal data for the purposes needed to provide their services to us. We do not sell personal data. We do not use workspace content, client files, order records, or private business data for advertising to customers.
Where required, we enter into appropriate contracts with subprocessors, including data processing terms and confidentiality obligations.
4. Data that subprocessors may process
Depending on the service and feature used, subprocessors may process limited categories of data such as:
- account data, such as name, email address, user ID, login method, and workspace role;
- workspace data, such as order records, customer details, tasks, notes, timelines, and activity logs;
- uploaded files and related metadata, such as file name, size, type, storage path, upload date, and uploader;
- payment and subscription information, such as plan, invoice status, subscription ID, and billing contact details;
- technical data, such as IP address, device type, app version, logs, diagnostics, and security events;
- communication data, such as support requests, transactional emails, and service notifications.
5. Subprocessors for the data you keep in NivaDesk
These providers process personal data that our customers keep in their NivaDesk workspaces, on our behalf, for the purposes shown for each. A provider marked "on trial" processes data only for the workspaces where we have turned that feature on.

5B. Services your workspace connects
When you or your workspace owner connect another service using your own account, NivaDesk sends data to that service or receives data from it on your instructions, only for the feature you use. You choose these services and have your own agreement with them; they handle the data under that agreement and their own terms and privacy policies, for example as your processor or as an independent controller. NivaDesk does not engage them as its subprocessors; if NivaDesk itself uses one of these providers to process your data, it is listed in section 5.
These services include:
- online stores and marketplaces: Etsy, eBay, Shopify, WooCommerce and Square;
- accounting software: QuickBooks (Intuit) and Xero;
- bank and payment feeds: TrueLayer (open banking) and PayPal;
- payment links: your own Stripe account, connected through Stripe Connect;
- shipping carriers: DHL Express and Royal Mail (Click & Drop);
- calendars and files: Google Calendar, Google Drive and Microsoft Outlook calendar;
- messaging: your WhatsApp Business number and your Instagram professional account (Meta);
- AI: your own OpenAI API key for Quick Reply, and AI assistants you connect to NivaDesk, such as ChatGPT and Claude.
6. Core infrastructure providers
Core infrastructure providers are necessary to operate NivaDesk. They may support account authentication, database storage, file storage, serverless functions, hosting, app sync, backup, and security controls.
Because these providers are needed for the service to work, users cannot usually opt out of core infrastructure processing while continuing to use NivaDesk.
7. Payment providers
Payment providers process subscriptions, renewals, invoices, receipts, refunds, tax information, fraud checks, and payment status.
If you subscribe through Apple App Store or Google Play, your payment relationship may be with Apple or Google. If you subscribe through our website, payment may be processed through Stripe or another payment provider.
NivaDesk does not store full card numbers on its own systems.
8. Analytics and diagnostics providers
We may use analytics and diagnostics providers to understand how the website and product are used, measure performance, fix bugs, and improve reliability.
Where required by law, non-essential analytics or marketing cookies will only be used after consent. Analytics should not be used to inspect private workspace content, uploaded files, or customer records for advertising purposes.
9. Support and communication providers
We may use email, help desk, or customer support providers to respond to support requests, send account messages, deliver billing notices, and provide service-related updates.
Please avoid sending unnecessary sensitive information in support messages unless it is needed to resolve your request.
10. International transfers
Some subprocessors may process data outside the United Kingdom or European Economic Area.
Where required, we use appropriate safeguards for international transfers, such as adequacy decisions, standard contractual clauses, the UK International Data Transfer Agreement, or other lawful transfer mechanisms.
11. Changes to subprocessors
NivaDesk may add, replace, or remove subprocessors as our service develops.
We will update this page when material subprocessors change. Business customers that have a Data Processing Agreement with us may have additional notification rights as described in that agreement.
If you have concerns about a new subprocessor, contact us at contact@nivadesk.co.uk.
12. Customer responsibilities
Customers are responsible for deciding what personal data they add to NivaDesk and ensuring they have the right to process that data.
If you use NivaDesk to manage your own clients, customers, suppliers, contractors, employees, or other third parties, you are responsible for providing any privacy notices or consent required by law.
You should only upload files and data that are necessary for your business use and should avoid storing unnecessary sensitive information.
