Service Providers And Subprocessors

Last updated: September 27, 2026

Overview

Boba Globe uses the service providers below to operate the app, process payments, send service emails, provide route features, and protect the service. Depending on the privacy law or contract that applies, these providers may be described as service providers, processors, subprocessors, independent controllers, or recipients.

Some services you choose to use act under their own terms rather than as Boba Globe providers: Google or Apple when you sign in with those accounts, the cloud storage provider you pick for optional route backup (such as iCloud Drive or Google Drive), and any app or destination you share a video to. Their own privacy policies apply to that use.

Provider Contract Review

Boba Globe reviews provider privacy terms, data-processing terms, security commitments, transfer terms, subprocessor notice processes, and retention or deletion obligations before treating a provider as approved for launch. These public links are provided for transparency, but the signed or accepted contract terms may vary by plan, account, region, and provider configuration.

International Transfer Safeguards

Providers may process information in the United States and other countries where they or their subprocessors operate. Where privacy laws require transfer safeguards, Boba Globe reviews lawful transfer mechanisms such as adequacy decisions, the EU Standard Contractual Clauses, the UK International Data Transfer Agreement or UK Addendum, provider data-processing terms, transfer-risk assessments, and supplementary technical, contractual, or organisational measures where appropriate.

Route Provider Use

Flightradar24, Geoapify, BusMaps, and Google Maps Platform are used only when you request the related flight, place autocomplete, or directions-route features and when those features are available to your account. If you do not request those features, Boba Globe does not send your route queries to those providers.

Updates

We may update this list when Boba Globe changes providers, adds a material provider, or removes a provider. Changes are reflected by the last updated date above.
