How we reached this

Polish legal entity: VERCOM S.A., ul. Wierzbięcice 1B, 61-569 Poznań, KRS 0000535618, NIP 7811765125, from the privacy policy read 2026-09-01. Vercom is also the parent of MessageFlow, listed separately on this site, which a buyer comparing the two should know. PARTIAL: the policy names infrastructure sub-processors by example ("e.g.") rather than exhaustively, and the complete list is available from the DPO on request instead of being published. The named infrastructure is mixed, Beyond.pl and NTT Global Data Centers in Europe alongside Amazon Web Services, so exposure is US_CLOUD_ACT on the AWS component; the policy does not say which provider holds message data, so a cleaner rating is not available. Google (Analytics, Ads, Tag Manager, Vertex AI) and Microsoft (Azure OpenAI) also appear, in the context of Vercom's websites and AI features rather than customer message data, but the policy does not draw that boundary explicitly. sccInPlace left false: no transfer mechanism is stated in the published text, only offered on request. dpaEvidence ON_REQUEST on the same basis.

About EmailLabs

The Layer Underneath the Newsletter Tool

EmailLabs is not where you write emails. It is where they leave from. If you already have an application generating order confirmations, password resets and notifications, this replaces whatever SMTP relay is currently doing that job.

What It Handles

  • SMTP relay and REST API for transactional and bulk sending
  • Dedicated IP addresses with reputation management, which is the part you are actually paying for at volume
  • Authentication setup for SPF, DKIM and DMARC
  • Delivery, bounce, open and click reporting with webhooks back into your own system
  • Deliverability support from a team, rather than only documentation

The Vercom Connection Is Worth Knowing

EmailLabs is published by VERCOM S.A., ul. Wierzbięcice 1B, 61-569 Poznań, KRS 0000535618, NIP 7811765125. Vercom is a listed Polish company, and it is also the parent of MessageFlow, which this directory already lists separately.

That is not a criticism, but it is a fact a buyer comparing the two should have. If you are weighing EmailLabs against MessageFlow as independent options, you are choosing between two brands in the same group, on much of the same infrastructure, and a resilience or concentration concern does not get solved by moving between them.

Mostly Polish Infrastructure, With American Edges

The privacy policy names the infrastructure sub-processors, which is more than most vendors in this category do: Beyond.pl and NTT Global Data Centers alongside Amazon Web Services (S3). Beyond.pl is a Poznań data centre operator, and the presence of two European facilities in that list is the reason this is not a US-hosted product.

The policy also names Google (Analytics, Ads, Tag Manager, Vertex AI) and Microsoft (Azure OpenAI) among the tools it uses. Those appear in the context of Vercom's own websites and AI features rather than of customer message data, but the policy does not draw that line explicitly, which is exactly why the rating here is PARTIAL rather than COMPLIANT.

The full processor list, "including the country of their registered office, the purpose of processing, and the data transfer mechanism", is available on request from the DPO rather than published. That is lawful, and it is a step better than nothing, but a published list is what separates the tools rated COMPLIANT here from the ones rated PARTIAL.

Where It Fits

Compare with MessageFlow from the same group, and with the transactional side of Brevo and Mailjet. For a smaller, independently owned alternative in the same layer, see AhaSend. The category view is email deliverability.

Key Features

SMTP relay and REST API for transactional and bulk sending
Dedicated IP addresses with reputation management
SPF, DKIM and DMARC authentication setup
Delivery, bounce, open and click reporting
Webhooks for delivery events back into your own system
Throughput controls for high-volume campaigns
Deliverability support from a named team
Polish-language support and invoicing

Pros & Cons

Names its infrastructure sub-processors in the privacy policy, which most senders do not
Two of the three named data centre providers are European, including Beyond.pl in Poznań
Built for the sending layer specifically, so deliverability support is the product rather than an upsell
Backed by a listed Polish company rather than a two-person operation
Polish invoicing and support for buyers who need both
Same parent company as MessageFlow, so the two are not independent options
Full sub-processor list is only available on request, not published
AWS appears in the infrastructure list, so US CLOUD Act exposure cannot be ruled out
The policy does not say which provider holds message data as opposed to website data
No standalone DPA document located; transfer mechanisms are not stated in the published text

EmailLabs GDPR & data protection: common questions

Is EmailLabs GDPR compliant?

Partly. EmailLabs meets some of the requirements, with caveats worth reading before you commit. EmailLabs is a European company headquartered in Poland, data is hosted within the European Union.

Where does EmailLabs store data?

EmailLabs states: "The privacy policy lists "infrastructure and hosting providers (e.g., Amazon Web Services – AWS S3, Beyond.pl, NTT Global Data Centers)" (emaillabs.io/en/privacy-policy/, read 2026-09-01). Beyond.pl is a Poznań data centre operator. The policy does not state which provider holds which data, and the full list "including the country of their registered office, the purpose of processing, and the data transfer mechanism, is available upon request" rather than published.". Data is hosted within the European Union.

Does EmailLabs offer a Data Processing Agreement (DPA)?

We could not locate a published DPA for EmailLabs. That does not mean one is unavailable. Many vendors provide it on request or inside the account area rather than publishing it. Ask before you sign.

What a DPA has to cover

Is EmailLabs a European company?

Yes. EmailLabs is headquartered in Poland and, as far as we can establish, European-owned.

Is EmailLabs subject to the US CLOUD Act?

Indirectly. EmailLabs itself is European-owned and headquartered in Poland, so the company is not subject to US jurisdiction. The exposure runs through a US provider in its processing chain, a host, CDN or other sub-processor, which can be compelled to disclose data it holds even when that data sits on EU servers. That is a narrower exposure than a US-owned vendor, and the compliance notes above say which provider it is.

Schrems II compliance checklist

Spotted something wrong?

Martech moves fast. Vendors change hosting regions, get acquired, publish a new DPA or rewrite their pricing, and they rarely announce it. We check what we publish and date every compliance review, but some of what you see here will be out of date before we catch it.

If you work at EmailLabs and something on this page is wrong, tell us and we will fix it. Readers, same invitation. Pointing us at the page that proves it gets it changed fastest.
