Sub-processors
Running a formation service means handing parts of your information to other companies — a host, a payment processor, the partner who files with the state. This page names them, says what each one does and where it does it, and explains how you hear about changes.

1. What this page is
Register Quick LLC is a service of Quick LLC, 30 N Gould St Ste R, Sheridan, WY 82801, USA. We form US LLCs for founders living outside the United States and for partner firms ordering on behalf of their clients.
A sub-processor is a company that processes personal data on our instructions so that we can provide the service. We keep the list short on purpose. Everything below is current as of the date at the top of this page, and it covers every sub-processor we use — there is no second, private list.
What we collect and why is set out in our privacy policy. If you are a partner firm, the data processing agreement is the contract that governs this list.
2. The current list
| Who | What they do for us | Where data is processed |
|---|---|---|
| Hetzner Online GmbH | Hosting for the application, its database and the documents held in your account. | Falkenstein, Germany (EU) |
| Cloudflare, Inc. | DNS, TLS and content delivery in front of the site. It sees request metadata, including IP addresses. | Global edge network |
| Stripe, Inc. | Card payments and payment records. Card details go to Stripe directly; we never receive full card numbers. | United States and other Stripe locations |
| DeepSeek | The AI model behind Ella, the assistant on our public pages. It receives the text of the messages you type so it can write a reply. | Outside the EU |
| Our US filing and registered agent partner | State filings, registered agent service and scanned official mail for your company. | United States |
| An independent US tax preparer | US federal tax filings, and only on plans that include them. Nothing is sent for a plan without tax filing. | United States |
Two notes on that table. The assistant only receives what you type into the chat window — it is not given your account, your company records or your documents. And the tax preparer only receives anything at all if your plan includes a US tax filing.
3. Why our filing partner is not named here
We do not publish the name of the company that files with the states and acts as registered agent for us. That is a commercial decision about a wholesale relationship, not an attempt to blur where your data goes — the row above says exactly what that company does and where it does it.
Partner firms with a data processing agreement in place can have the named list, including that company, by emailing [email protected] from an address on the firm's account. If you are a founder and want to know before you order, ask at the same address.
4. Recipients that are not sub-processors
- State filing offices and the IRS. They receive your filing because that is the point of the service. They act on their own authority, not on our instructions, so they are recipients rather than sub-processors.
- Public records. In most states a formation filing becomes a public record — typically the company name, its state, its registered agent and address, and in some states the names of members or managers. Once a state publishes that, we cannot withdraw it. Check the relevant state guide before you file if this matters to you.
- Your partner firm. If a firm ordered on your behalf, it can see the status, documents and deadlines of the companies it ordered. That firm is our customer, and it is responsible for its own relationship with you.
- Stock photographs on our public pages. Marketing pages load photographs from Picsum Photos, so a visitor's browser contacts that service to fetch an image. No account data is involved, and no such request is made from your dashboard.
5. What we do not use
We do not currently use an analytics provider, an advertising or tracking network, or an email-marketing platform. There is no third-party script counting your visit on this site. Our cookie policy covers the small number of cookies that remain.
Transactional email — a welcome message, an order confirmation, a reminder — is written and queued by the application itself on our own server, rather than being handed to an outside email platform.
6. How we choose a sub-processor
- A contract first. We do not send personal data to a company we have no written agreement with, and that agreement has to bind them to confidentiality and to processing data only on our instructions.
- Purpose limitation. Each company on the list gets only the data it needs for the job named in the table, and only for as long as that job requires.
- A security review before we start. We look at how the company protects data, where it processes it, what it publishes about its own security, and what happens to your data if we stop using them.
- We prefer fewer. Every addition is another company holding your information, so the default answer to a new tool is no.
7. How you hear about changes
When we add or replace a sub-processor, we update this page and change the date at the top. Partner firms with a data processing agreement in place are told by email before a new sub-processor starts handling their clients' data, so there is time to look at it and respond.
We may replace a sub-processor at short notice if the existing one fails, is breached, or ends its service. If that happens we will still tell you, and we will say why.
8. Objecting, and asking questions
If you object to a new sub-processor, email [email protected] and tell us which one and why. We will explain what the company does and whether the work can reasonably be done another way. If it cannot, and you do not want your data processed that way, you can stop using the affected service and we will deal with the refund position under our refund policy. What we will not do is pretend the objection was never made.
Questions about the list, requests for the named partner, and requests for a copy of the agreement we hold with any company on it all go to the same address. For how these systems are protected day to day, see our security page.
