Thanks! No, the US Government can't access your data. Only you can. GovCloud is just a special portion of AWS that has extra security controls so that US companies are confident that all their data is housed in US servers and properly treated according to ITAR regulations. It's totally fine for companies outside the US to use and doesn't give the government any access.

We also support on-premises deployments if that's preferable to companies outside the US.

I’m building up a space related non-profit (space telescopes) and I’m not in the USA.

So ITAR is a poison, it is great you have an ITAR Free option, do you have any plans to host in other AWS regions long term? And how much more is on-premises likely to cost me?

Yep, we are planning on hosting in other AWS regions as well. For pricing, let's discuss offline because it'll depend on a few things. Can you fill out the Contact form on our website (https://epsilon3.io/contact), and we can take it from there?

Awesome! Definitely will be filling it out. Just had to ask the obvious ITAR question, so I could set my expectations appropriately of course.

Im sure you’re getting the same feedback from a lot of other non-USA potential customer so it’s great to hear you already have a plan.
