Solution

Under GDPR Art. 28, processors must disclose the sub-processors they engage and offer a Data Processing Agreement (DPA). Publish a /subprocessors page listing each third party that handles customer personal data (purpose, location), keep it current, and link a DPA from your legal/trust pages. B2B SaaS and fintech buyers expect this during security review.

The rule passes when it finds a dedicated sub-processor / data-processing / DPA page (by URL path) or a link to one (by href or anchor text) on any crawled page.
