Subprocessors
Last updated: 24 September 2026
Photon Consulting Limited, trading as SquareWave Studio (an Irish company registered with the Companies Registration Office under number 702545), uses the third parties below to process personal data on our behalf so we can run SquareWave.network, the SquareWave Studio site, and the PatchStudio apps. Where a provider is outside the EEA, that transfer relies on the safeguard shown. We keep this list current and will note material changes in our privacy policy.

Third-party download source. EP-PatchStudio's stem separation models and OP-PatchStudio's Memos speech packs download directly from Hugging Face (huggingface.co and its content delivery network) when you choose to download one. Hugging Face does not process data for us, so it is not a subprocessor; it sees the download request under its own privacy policy. See section 2B of ourprivacy policy.
