# Manage Subprocessors

## What You'll Learn

* Update vendor details, location, and usage documentation
* Manage badge assets (upload, replace, remove)
* Delete subprocessors and understand rebuild timing

## Prerequisites

* Admin role in Admin Center
* Badge image ≤ 2 MB (PNG/SVG/JPG/WEBP/GIF)
* Access to your organization's Admin Center

## Step-by-Step

### Open the detail view

1. Navigate to **Subprocessors** in the Admin Center.
2. Use global search or filters to find the vendor you need.
3. Click **Manage** to open the detail page.

### Update core information

* **Vendor name & description**: Update at any time—the Trust Center refreshes on the next build.
* **Location of processing**: Keep jurisdictions accurate for procurement reviews.
* **Usage details**: The Markdown editor supports tables, bullet lists, and hyperlinks. Use it to document retention windows or data categories.
* **Display options → Feature on overview**: Toggle this on to pin the vendor to the Trust Center overview tab; turn it off to let the alphabetical list fill that slot.

Changes are staged until you click **Save changes**.

### Replace or remove a badge

1. Click the badge to upload a new asset (max 2 MB, SVG/PNG/JPG/WEBP).
2. Use **Remove badge** to clear the asset entirely.

### Delete a subprocessor

Scroll to the **Danger zone** and confirm the deletion. This:

* Removes the vendor from the Admin Center list
* Removes the associated badge asset
* Excludes the subprocessor from the Trust Center on the next build

<Callout type="warning">
  Deleting a subprocessor is irreversible. Take a snapshot of the current record
  before removal if you need historical reference data.
</Callout>

### When changes appear

* Your updates will be visible on the public Trust Center within approximately one hour, or immediately after a manual site refresh.
* The **Last review** date shown in the Trust Center updates automatically whenever you save changes to a subprocessor.

## Common Issues

<Callout type="info">
  Badge exceeds size limit or has unsupported file type. Ensure the badge is ≤ 2 MB and uses PNG, SVG, JPG, WEBP, or GIF format.
