Scope verdict

Ownership reviewed, controller unresolved

This service remains visible for context, but it is not counted or recommended as a European-controlled option.

How we classify services

Passbolt is an open source password manager from Luxembourg, built for sharing credentials inside a team rather than only storing your own. There are apps for Android and iOS and browser add-ons for Chrome, Firefox, Edge and Brave, so passwords are filled in where people actually work.

Passbolt can be used as a hosted service or installed on your own servers, and the cloud version runs on servers powered entirely by renewable energy. Being open source and based in the EU makes it a European alternative to the American password managers, with the option to audit the code or keep the vault in house.

Data and operations

Infrastructure and email path

Verified operational dependencies, shown separately from ownership and from the service's core data hosting.

Public website

Cloudflare

Non-European provider
Observed
A 104.20.37.109, 172.66.173.190 · AS13335

Why this matters

Public DNS routes website visits through Cloudflare. Visitor IP addresses and request metadata can reach this non-European provider; this does not identify the core service's data location.

Incoming business email

Google Workspace

Non-European provider
Observed
MX 1 aspmx.l.google.com · 5 alt1.aspmx.l.google.com · 5 alt2.aspmx.l.google.com · 10 alt3.aspmx.l.google.com · 10 alt4.aspmx.l.google.com

Why this matters

Published MX records route incoming business email through Google Workspace. Correspondent details and message content can therefore enter this non-European provider's systems; MX does not reveal the configured storage region.

Public DNS records identify visible providers and routes, not every backend location or private data-region setting.
