Blindfold operates PII processing nodes in multiple regions. You can select a region to ensure data residency compliance and minimize latency.

Available Regions

If no region is specified, requests are routed to the EU region by default.

Selecting a Region

Python SDK

JavaScript / TypeScript SDK

CLI

MCP Server

Set the BLINDFOLD_REGION environment variable:

Direct API Calls (cURL)

Data Residency

When you select a region, your text data is processed entirely within that region:
  • EU region: PII detection and processing occurs on EU-based servers.
  • US region: PII detection and processing occurs on US-based servers.
Your API key works across all regions. You do not need separate API keys per region.

Priority Order

The region is resolved in this order (highest priority first):
  1. Explicit base URL (base_url / baseUrl / --base-url) - always takes precedence
  2. Region parameter (region / --region / BLINDFOLD_REGION)
  3. Default - routes to EU via api.blindfold.dev
